D: From the Microsoft Teams admin center, turn off org-wide guest access and manually add guest users from fabrikam.com to teams.
Correct Answer:
A. From the Azure Active Directory admin center, modify the External collaboration settings to include fabrikam.com only.
Explanation

Guest access in Microsoft Teams is fundamentally governed by Azure Active Directory's (Azure AD) External collaboration settings. To restrict guest invitations to a single, specific domain such as fabrikam.com, the most direct and effective method is to configure these settings in the Azure AD admin center. By setting the policy to "Allow invitations only to the specified domains" and adding "fabrikam.com" to the list, you ensure that only users from this domain can be added as guests across the organization, thereby meeting the requirement precisely.

Why Incorrect

B. Modifying Office 365 groups settings is a general on/off switch for guest access in groups but lacks the specific domain-level control required.
C. External access settings in the Teams admin center manage federation for chat/calls with other organizations, which is different from guest access (team membership).
D. Turning off org-wide guest access would prevent all guest invitations, which contradicts the goal of allowing guests from a specific domain.
