The correct answer is C. RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), because RDP is the default remote access technology for Windows servers. It allows technicians to remotely connect to the graphical desktop environment of a Windows server to verify services, logs, and system status.

According to the Quentin Docter -- CompTIA A+ Complete Study Guide, RDP is built into Windows operating systems and is commonly used by administrators to manage Windows servers and workstations. It provides full access to the desktop, making it ideal for checking whether services such as IIS (Internet Information Services) are running properly.

The Travis Everett & Andrew Hutz -- All-in-One Exam Guide explains that while SSH is commonly used for Linux and network devices, Windows servers typically rely on RDP for administrative access. VNC is a third-party remote desktop solution and is not enabled by default on Windows systems.

The Mike Meyers / Mark Soper Lab Manual reinforces that SPICE is primarily used in virtualized environments and is not a standard Windows remote access tool.

Because the technician needs to verify a Windows web server's operational status using a built-in method, RDP is the most appropriate and likely technology, making C the correct answer.
