Yeah, I agree with Edda. Option B seems like the best fit for the requirements. Although, I have to admit, I'm a little worried about the cluster member. What if it goes down? Wouldn't that mess up the whole setup?

I think option B makes the most sense. We have one standalone primary, one cluster member, and one load balancer. That way we have the active-passive HA setup, and the load balancer to handle the geographic distribution.

Okay, let's break this down. We need to have active-passive HA at headquarters, with geographically distributed load balancing. That means we need a primary and a backup, as well as some load balancing capability.

This question seems pretty straightforward, but I'm not sure about the specifics of FortiAuthenticator and HA configurations. I'm leaning towards either B or D, but I need to think it through a bit more.
