Answer

  • B Global applies to the whole domain, local to one system

Explanation

A domain administrator can act on all systems in the domain, a local administrator only on one computer. If local admin passwords are set identically everywhere, however, they effectively become global. Tools such as LAPS therefore assign a separate password per computer.
