Why each option

The Cisco Meraki dashboard is a cloud-based management platform accessed securely via a web browser.

A22

TCP port 22 is typically used for Secure Shell (SSH) access, not for accessing a web-based management dashboard.

B23

TCP port 23 is used for Telnet, an unencrypted remote access protocol, which is not used for the Meraki dashboard.

C443Correct

The Cisco Meraki dashboard is a web-based interface that is accessed over HTTPS, which by default uses TCP port 443 for secure communication. This is the standard port for encrypted web traffic.

D8080

TCP port 8080 is a common alternative port for HTTP web services, but the Meraki dashboard uses the standard secure HTTPS port 443.
