E. Ask yourself if you are investigating something that happened yesterday, "why on earth would I want to stop logs older than 1 hour?!" then speak to the person responsible for that request!

I think C is correct, which is the given answer. A. The refresh interval is a settings for DNS zone itself. https://www.dnsqueries.com/en/forum/dns_howto/What_is_the_refresh_Interval_0/ D. Update-IpamServer is a cmdlet to update IPAM. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/ipamserver/update-ipamserver?view=win10-ps B. I can't find documents related to IPAM_DNS Group Policy object (GPO).

"modify the Microsoft\Windows\IPAM\Audit task" means that you change default frequency to one hour.
