1. -> vcenter cli, nor ESXi cli (service-control –start). Before 6.5 esxcli was correct, starting from 6.5 – not
   With external PSC, vSAPS is on PSC.
   vSphere7.0 doc, how to start vSAPS

   (VAMI+cli)
   vSpher 6.7 doc

   (VAMI+Web Client), but service-control –start will work as for any other service.
   Anyway in 6.7:
   in VAMI select and start – Stone!
   vSphere Web Client – flash (works)
   vSphere Client – HTML-5 (no such option)
   cli:
   vCenter on Windows:
   C:\Program Files\VMware\vCenter Server\bin>service-control –list | find “Authentication”
   VMWareCAMService (VMware vSphere Authentication Proxy)
   VMWareAfdService (VMware Authentication Framework)

   And in this case my vCenter is also a PSC, so what is the correct answer for this question? DE?

2. The correct answer should be C,D
   for B, the correct answer should be vSphere Web Client, not vSphere Client.
   Reference link is the same:
   If you want to use vSphere Authentication Proxy in your environment, you can start the service from the vCenter Server Appliance Management Interface, from the vSphere Web Client, or from the command line.
