B Because DoS is disabled https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/6.0.0/handbook/486206/dos-protection Status The status field is enabled to enable the sensor for the associated anomaly.

Why not A since the IPS should detect the attack right away, while IMAP filter needs needs 60 hits during 10 second for IPS to consider the attack?

C is correct. In FortiOS, the DoS scans precede the policy engine at the incoming interfaces, thus eliminating unnecessary sessions from the firewall process and state table entry during a surge of attack traffic. https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/6.0.0/Handbook/48143/intrusion-prevention-system-ips
