CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 704

A technician is troubleshooting servers with high CPU usage. While trying to connect, the technician needs to open a port for remote access. Which of the following ports should the technician open?

Answer options

• A. 443
• B. 3321
• C. 8080
• D. 5900

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct port to open for remote access is 5900, which is used by VNC (Virtual Network Computing) for remote desktop access. Port 443 is typically used for HTTPS traffic, port 3321 does not have a widely recognized use for remote access, and port 8080 is often used for alternative web traffic but not specifically for remote desktop connections.
