For DC agent FSSO, it goes:
- DC authentication (aka login)
- DC agent installed on DC pushes to collector agent
- Collector agent pushes to Fortinet
- Fortinet allows login with DC information

The DC agent does not send information directly to the Fortigate

The DC agent sends data to the collector Agent and the collector agent sends it to FortiGate C is correct

    That is correct, but the question asks What is NOT a process, Therefore it’s A as DC agent does not communicate directly with the Fortigate.
