The correct answer is C. 443. To ensure Configuration Manager clients can download application packages securely from a distribution point (Server1), the HTTPS port must be open on the server's firewall.
Question
Your network contains one Active Directory forest named contoso.com. The forest has a deployment of Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager. You plan to add a server named Server1 as a distribution point. Server1 will be used only by client computers on the internal network that run Windows 8.1 Enterprise. The Windows Deployment Services server role will NOT be installed on Server1. You need to identify which firewall port on Server1 must be open to ensure that Configuration Manager clients can download application packages from Server1. Which TCP port should you identify?

Why each option
To ensure Configuration Manager clients can download application packages securely from a distribution point (Server1), the HTTPS port must be open on the server's firewall.
TCP port 53 is used for DNS queries, not for downloading application packages from a Configuration Manager distribution point.
TCP port 8080 is a common alternative HTTP port but not the default or standard secure port for Configuration Manager content download.
Port 443 is the standard TCP port for HTTPS, which is commonly used by Configuration Manager clients to securely download application packages and content from distribution points.
TCP port 636 is used for LDAPS (LDAP over SSL), which is related to secure directory services, not application package download.
