Nope, 636 is definitely the right one for SSL.

I’m pretty sure 389 is for regular LDAP, but I always mix up the SSL port. I think it’s 636, though!

I feel like I might confuse the SSL port with something else. Was it 443 or 636?

I remember practicing a question about LDAP ports, and I think 389 is definitely for standard connections.

Okay, let me think this through. LDAP uses different ports for standard and SSL connections, and I believe the standard port is 389 and the SSL port is 636. I'm going to go with option D on this one.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I think the ports might be 443 and 389, but I'm not totally sure. I'll have to double-check my notes.

This is a tricky one. I know LDAP has specific port numbers, but I can't remember the exact ones off the top of my head. I'll have to use the process of elimination and see if I can narrow it down.

A Kubernetes pod could work, but it might be overkill for this scenario. I'd probably go with the multi-stage Dockerfile approach as it seems the most straightforward solution.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know transit privileges have to do with moving goods, but I'm not totally clear on the specifics. I'll try to eliminate the options that don't sound right.
