Answer: D

Explanation:

When using Foreign LUN Import (FLI) for migrating LUNs from third-party SAN arrays to a NetApp ONTAP system, one of the requirements is to have at least one Fibre Channel (FC) port configured in target mode on the destination NetApp ONTAP cluster. This configuration is necessary to facilitate the migration process as the target mode port will accept and manage incoming data from the source SAN arrays.
