Because the Server/workstation is not joined to the domain the type of logon will be 'local logon' Therefore we need to make sure the local logons will be protected even if the machine is moved into a separate location and no longer connected to the network(offline logon).

It is also recommended to exempt at least one local account from MFA (usually the local administrator account) just in case there is an issue that prevents the end user from being able to log on, the administrator will still have access without being challenged.
