Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) operates over different ports, with each serving a specific purpose. Port389is the default port for unsecured LDAP connections or LDAP with StartTLS, which upgrades the connection to use TLS (Transport Layer Security) for encryption.On the other hand, port636is used for LDAP over SSL/TLS, often referred to as LDAPS (LDAP Secure), where communication is encrypted from the start of the connection1.

Ah, the age-old question of LDAP port numbers. D) 389; 636, of course! Unless you're a secret agent trying to hack the mainframe, then it's probably 007; 007.

Alright, let's see... D) 389; 636. Wait, is that the universal port for LDAP and SSL? Or is it the secret code to unlock the treasure chest? *scratches head*

The reason why port 389 is used for standard connections is because it's the well-known port for LDAP. And port 636 is used for SSL connections to ensure secure communication.
