Q: 6
A technician is configuring a server that requires secure remote access. Which of the following ports
should the technician use?
Options
Discussion
My pick: B
Option B is right since port 22 means SSH, which is secure remote access. But if the question asked for web-based remote admin (like HTTPS), D (443) would make more sense, so does it mean CLI or browser access?
B . That's SSH's port for secure remote CLI, fits the question best here.
D tbh
B
Are we sure this is talking about a browser or is it just generic remote CLI access?
C or D, since secure remote access could mean HTTPS (443) for web consoles, not just CLI. Not 100 percent sure here.
Option D makes sense if we're talking a web-based management portal since 443 is HTTPS. The question just says "secure remote access" which feels vague, so I think D could be right if that's the context. B is probably what they're looking for but the wording can trip you up here.
Pretty solid it's B. Port 22 is the default for SSH, which is the go-to for secure remote CLI access to servers. A and C are FTP/Telnet and not secure, D (443) is HTTPS and would only apply if a browser-based tool was involved, which isn't said here. Correct me if I'm missing a scenario!
B tbh, 22 is secure remote CLI (SSH) so that's the right one here. D's just a trap if you're thinking HTTPS management. Seen similar question in other practice sets.
