A configuration is single domain, single forest, and does not use SSL. Which port number should be used to configure LDAP?
The correct answer is A. 389. Port 389 is the standard, unencrypted LDAP port used for directory lookups in a single domain, single forest configuration.

Explanation
Port 389 is the standard, unencrypted LDAP port used for directory lookups in a single domain, single forest configuration. Port 636 (C) is LDAPS - LDAP over SSL/TLS - which is excluded by the 'does not use SSL' constraint. Port 3268 (D) is the Global Catalog port, used to query all objects across an entire Active Directory forest from a single query - unnecessary for a single-domain environment. Port 3269 (B) is the SSL-encrypted Global Catalog port. Since the scenario is single domain with no SSL, 389 is the correct choice.
