Answer options

• A. 192.168.1.80 port 1777
• B. 192.168.1.70 port 1777
• C. 192.168.1.80 port 23
• D. 192.168.1.70 port 23

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the command specifies that the local port 1777 is forwarded to the remote host 192.168.1.80 on port 23. Options A and B refer to the wrong ports or hosts, and option D mentions the incorrect host for the specified port.
