Your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is C. If you use a FortiGate and you try and configure an IPS, the rate-mode options only appear when you select "signatures" and not "filter". Also please see the official study guide for page 292 for reference.

The answer is D:

Page 292 of study guide.

"You can also add rate-based "signatures" to block specific traffic when the threshold is exceeded. On the CLI, if you set the command rate-mode to periodical, FortiGate triggers the action when the threshold is reached during the configured Duration time period. You should apply "rate-based signatures" only to protocols you use.
