Wait, it uses TCP port 22? That’s surprising!

B) is just silly. Everyone knows ESP is not a text-based protocol. What were they thinking?

A) is definitely true, but I'm not sure about D). Hmm, better double-check that one.

I think I've seen practice questions where ESP was mentioned alongside L2TP, so option D could be a valid choice.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like ESP operates at a lower layer than the application layer, so option C seems off to me.

I remember studying that ESP is definitely part of IPSec, so I think option A is correct.

Ah yes, I remember ESP now. It's an IPSec protocol, so A is true. The other options don't seem to match what I know about ESP, so I'll go with A and skip the rest.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know ESP has something to do with IPSec, but I can't recall the specifics. I'll have to carefully read through the options and try to eliminate the ones that don't sound right. Hopefully I can at least get the two correct answers.

Okay, I remember learning about ESP in my networking class. It's definitely an IPSec protocol, so A is correct. As for the other options, B, C, and D all sound incorrect to me. I'll focus on just picking the two true statements.

I recall that ESP is not text-based, which makes option B false, but I can't remember if it can be nested with L2TP for sure.

Hmm, I know ESP is related to IPSec, but I'm not sure if it's a protocol or just a component. The other options seem a bit off, I don't think ESP uses TCP port 22 or operates at the application layer.

I'm pretty sure ESP is an IPSec protocol, so A is definitely true. Not sure about the other options though, I'll have to think about those.
