C (Optional) Change the HA4 Keep-alive Threshold (ms) to specify the timeframe within which the firewall must receive keepalives from a cluster member to know that the cluster member is functional; range is 5,000 to 60,000; default is 10,000. https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/11-0/pan-os-admin/high-availability/configure-ha-clustering

The direct quote from this linked article is, "Change Cluster Synchronization Timeout (min), which is the maximum number of minutes that the local firewall waits before going to Active state when another cluster member (for example, in unknown state) is preventing the cluster from fully synchronizing; range is 0 to 30; default is 0." This makes the answer B the correct response.
