A. B.

B.

The answer is B, False.

When a user tries to access Salesforce from an IP address that is outside of the organization's trusted IP range, Salesforce requires the user to enter a security token as an additional level of verification. However, if the user's IP range has been added to the trusted IP range, the user does not need to enter a security token while logging into Connect for Outlook.

Connect for Outlook is an integration between Salesforce and Microsoft Outlook that allows users to access Salesforce data directly within their Outlook client. To use Connect for Outlook, users must first authenticate their Salesforce account through the Outlook client.

If the user's IP address is within the organization's trusted IP range, the user is automatically authenticated without the need for a security token. However, if the user's IP address is outside of the trusted IP range, the user is prompted to enter a security token along with their Salesforce login credentials.

In summary, if a user's IP range has been added to the organization's trusted IP range, they will not need to use their security token when logging into Connect for Outlook.
