I think I remember that the HTTP Event Collector can use different types of identifiers, but I'm not sure which one is correct here.

The question mentions the HTTP Event Collector indexer acknowledgment capability, so I'm guessing the answer has something to do with that. I'll review my notes on that topic to see if I can figure it out.

I'm going with B. DNS. It's what all the cool kids are using these days. Plus, it's got that nice, familiar ring to it, you know?

A GUID? Really? I thought we were supposed to be using something more secure, like a unicorn horn or a leprechaun's lucky charm.
