Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

Management HA is a feature that allows the Security Management server to have one or more backup Standby Security Management servers that are ready to take over in case of failure1. The Active Security Management server is the one that handles all the management operations, such as policy installation, object creation, configuration backup, etc. The Standby Security Management servers are synchronized with the Active Security Management server and store the same data, such as databases, certificates, CRLs, etc.The Standby Security Management servers can also perform some operations, such as fetching a Security Policy or retrieving a CRL1.

To make changes to the system, such as editing objects or policies, the administrator needs to connect to the Active Security Management server. This is because the Active Security Management server is the only one that can modify the data and synchronize it with the Standby Security Management servers.The administrator can use SmartConsole to connect to the Active Security Management server by entering its IP address or hostname1. The administrator can also use SmartDashboard to connect to the Active Security Management server by selecting Policy > Management High Availability.This shows information about the Security Management server that includes its peers - displayed with the name, status and type of Security Management server1.

The other options are incorrect because:

A) secondary Smartcenter: This is a synonym for a Standby Security Management server, which cannot be used to make changes to the system.

C) connect virtual IP of Smartcenter HA: This is not a valid option because there is no virtual IP for Smartcenter HA. Each Security Management server has its own IP address and hostname.

D) primary Smartcenter: This is a synonym for the Active Security Management server, but it is not the correct term to use. The term primary implies that there is only one Active Security Management server, which is not true.The administrator can put the Active Security Management server on standby and promote a Standby Security Management server to active at any time1.
