Question 110
A regulated company chooses pass-through authentication so sign-in verification uses on-premises AD DS through registered agents. The proposed change is: Deploy and validate a supported set of pass-through authentication agents with the selected cloud authentication method. After applying the intended configuration, which observation most directly proves that the required behavior works?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Test a sign-in while one agent is disabled and verify another healthy agent can process authentication. This directly tests the effective outcome, not merely that a configuration exists. It establishes whether the intended change works: deploy and validate a supported set of pass-through authentication agents with the selected cloud authentication method. Failure would be evident in this case: cloud sign-ins fail during a single agent outage even though the user object still synchronizes.
Incorrect Answers
The proposed observation checks the different cloud sync agent and scoping scenario. Even a successful test would not establish the requested outcome here: test a sign-in while one agent is disabled and verify another healthy agent can process authentication.
The proposed observation checks the different staged ad fs migration scenario. Even a successful test would not establish the requested outcome here: test a sign-in while one agent is disabled and verify another healthy agent can process authentication.
The proposed observation checks the different password hash synchronization scenario. Even a successful test would not establish the requested outcome here: test a sign-in while one agent is disabled and verify another healthy agent can process authentication.
