C is only for the traffic of Lync. Maybe B is the correct.

I believe it’s A

My considerations for A
MOSDAL (Microsoft cloud services Diagnostics and Logging) Support Toolkit The MOSDAL Support Toolkit collects system, network, service-based application configuration and logging data along with performing network diagnostics. The toolkit can be used for a variety Office 365 troubleshooting issues.
The remote connectivity is for office365 online -> not D
The Lync calculator is a spreadsheet -> not C
Microsoft Network Monitor is an old tool -> probably not B

Answer is: C. Lync 2010 and 2013 Bandwidth Calculator

On site MS you see:

There are calculators available to assist you with estimating network bandwidth requirements. These calculators work for on-premises as well as Office 365 deployments. You can use the Exchange client network bandwidth calculator to estimate the bandwidth required for a specific set of Outlook, Outlook Web App, and mobile device users in your Office 365 deployment. With the Lync Server 2010 and 2013 bandwidth calculator, you enter information about users and the Lync Online features you want to deploy, and the calculator helps you determine bandwidth requirements.

the KEY word in this question is “post-migration” and the only tool that can estimate the Bandwidth Usage is Lync 2013 Bandwidth Calculator the rest of the tools can be used to monitor the current bandwidth usage
Correct answer is C

I think Option C is correct. As per microsoft “With the Lync Server 2010 and 2013 Bandwidth Calculator, you can enter information about your users and the Lync Server features that you want to deploy, and the calculator will determine bandwidth requirements for the WAN that connects sites in your deployment. The accompanying User Guide describes the recommended process for estimating your WAN bandwidth needs for Lync client real-time traffic. The User Guide will be updated periodically with new information and modifications”

From what I can tell A is no longer an option, It is not available.
The question also does not state which of the 3 services we are we migrating too.
However, it does give us a hint in the answers.
The only thing that can help us with data is a calculator. All other forms just help us analyse the traffic.

So my answer is C – Bandwith Calc.

It should be B.
Network tools. Test and validate your Internet bandwidth to determine download, upload, and latency constraints. These tools will help you determine the capabilities of your network for migration AS WELL AS AFTER YOU’RE FULLY DEPLOYED.
Microsoft Network Monitor 3.4: Captures network traffic and allows you to view and analyze it. Look for HTTPS/SSL time-outs that are set too low on proxies, firewalls and router and also look for excessive retransmits.
Skype for Business Bandwidth Calculator: Enter information about users and the Skype for Business features you want to deploy, and the calculator helps you determine bandwidth requirements (also applicable for Lync Server 2010, and Lync Server 2013 deployments)

The question is asking for O365. Not just Lync.

Hi all,
I’m pretty sure of this:
answer C(Lync Clculator).

According to the Microsoft Official Office 365 course:
“The following tools can help with the process of estimating network bandwidth:
Reference Links: Exchange Client Network Bandwidth Calculator, at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=401130
Reference Links: Lync 2010 and 2013 Bandwidth Calculator, at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=401131

It now covers Office 365 deployment.
So, it is one of the tool to estimate post-migration bandwidth.
