Why each option
The Cisco Meraki dashboard is a cloud-based management platform accessed securely via a web browser.
TCP port 22 is typically used for Secure Shell (SSH) access, not for accessing a web-based management dashboard.
TCP port 23 is used for Telnet, an unencrypted remote access protocol, which is not used for the Meraki dashboard.
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.
TCP port 8080 is a common alternative port for HTTP web services, but the Meraki dashboard uses the standard secure HTTPS port 443.
