Yup, C) DMZ is the correct answer. I mean, it's not like we're going to put the webserver in the 'None' zone, right? That would just be silly.

Absolutely, the DMZ zone is the way to go here. That's the whole point of having a DMZ - to isolate public-facing servers like the webserver from the internal network.

I agree, the webserver is in the DMZ zone. So the NAT rule destination zone should be set to 'DMZ' to allow traffic from the internet to reach the webserver.

Hmm, this is an interesting question. The pre-NAT IP address of the server is 153.6.12.10, and the post-NAT IP address is 192.168.10.10. Based on the routing and interfaces information provided, it looks like the webserver is hosted in the DMZ zone.
