    Correct answer is: “C”

    On the computer that is running Server Manager, add the workgroup server name to the TrustedHosts list.

    To add a computer name to an existing list of trusted hosts, add the Concatenate parameter to the command. For example, to add the Server01 computer to an existing list of trusted hosts, use the following command

    Set-Item wsman:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Concatenate -Force

    C is correct – A is not correct for one thing – it says Credentials Not Valid therefore we assume that connection was estabilished correctly and all firewall exceptions are done, WinRM is running etc. It only fails to authenticate user. Therefore you can either add computer to trusted hosts. In domain environment you would add user to remote management group

    Add and manage servers in workgroups
    Although adding servers that are in workgroups to Server Manager might be successful, after
    they are added, the Manageability column of the Servers tile—on a role or group page that
    includes a workgroup server—can display Credentials not valid errors that occur while trying to
    connect to or collect data from the remote, workgroup server.
    To add remote workgroup servers to Server Manager
    On the computer that is running Server Manager, add the workgroup server name to the
    TrustedHosts list. This is a requirement of NTLM authentication. To add a computer name to an
    existing list of trusted hosts, add the Concatenate parameter to the command. For example, to
    add the Server01 computer to an existing list of trusted hosts, use the following command.
    Set-Item wsman:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts Server01 -Concatenate -Force
