A systems administrator receives reports about connection issues to a secure web server. Given the following firewall and web server outputs: Which of the following commands best resolves this issue?

The correct answer is C. ufw delete deny https/tcp. The firewall output shows that port 443/tcp (HTTPS) is explicitly denied, even though the web server is correctly listening on it. Removing the deny rule for HTTPS (ufw delete deny https/tcp) resolves the issue while still keeping the firewall active and secure.
