Scenario: A Citrix Engineer is designing a Provisioning Services environment based on the following environmental factors:
-A large number of target devices are spread over multiple subnets.
-The subnets include non-Provisioning Services machines that rely on starting up over the network -A security mandate prohibits the use of TFTP.
-Provisioning Services 7.6 Update 1 is being used to maintain LTSR compliance.
Which Provisioning Services boot method is appropriate for the target devices?
A. BDM ISO
B. DHCP Options
C. BIOS Embedded
D. BDM Disk Partition

D is the correct answer
Is there a way to eliminate both PXE Service and TFTP from communication process?
Yes, by using Boot Device Manager (BDM) both PXE and TFTP can be eliminated from communication process. Using Boot Device Manager utility on PVS Server, bootstrap file can be written into a local hard drive.
Correction answer to this question is D

BDM ISO option will use a Two stage bootstrap process and hence the TFTP services will be needed to download the second half of the bootstrap file. If the DHCP is used to provide IP addresses to the target in the BDM ISO Configuration and the DHCP Server is not configured with Scope Option 66 and 67, then we will need to PXE Service.
I mean C
Sorry 😛
Gonzo would be right is the question states that the target devices are created using the XenDesktop Wizard:
This is the other question from the PDF I found:

-A large number of target devices are spread over multiple subnets.
-The subnets include non-Provisioning Services machines that rely on booting over the network
-A security mandate prohibits the use of TFTP.
-The XenDesktop Setup Wizard is used to create the target devices.
Which Provisioning Services boot method is appropriate for the target devices?
A. BDM Disk Partition
B. BIOS Embedded
C. DHCP Options
D. BDM ISO
Correct Answer: A
Section: (none)
Explanation
The answer is C. BDM and DHCP all use TFTP and security mandate prohibits the use of tftp.

Also for 7.6 https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/legacy-archive/downloads/provisioning-services-7-6.pdf
Answer could be right: https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/provisioning/7-15/managing-target-device/bootstrap-bios-embedded.html
Boot mode:
PXE boot (requires a running PXE Service)
BDM disk (create a boot device manager Partition)
This is from the wizard settings XenDesktop (Select your virtual machines to create) so that makes D the right answer
