C Refer to https://docs.aws.amazon.com/directoryservice/latest/admin-guide/directory_ad_connector.html The provided reference https://docs.aws.amazon.com/directoryservice/latest/admin-guide/usecase5.html points to AWS Managed Microsoft AD, which indeed can help also, but it is not mentioned in Option A. Indeed you need a connection to on-premises, either via Direct Connect or VPN (or both), but that alone will not be a solution.

Selected Answer: C
To satisfy the requirement of using on-premises Active Directory user accounts to access the AWS Management Console, a VPN tunnel should be established between the on-premises network and the Amazon VPC where the AWS Management Console resources are located. Additionally, an Active Directory connector should be configured to enable Single Sign-On (SSO) with AWS.

Not A. Direct Connect is a networking service to connect on-prem to AWS. It is needed but not enough. Not B. Route 53 DNS service does not have any AD federation capability (and why would it!) Not D. MFA is a good thing but not relevant to the requirements of the question. Answer C. VPN tunnel needed to connect and the AD connector needed to connect IAM to AD.
