There is no correct answer. Usually firewalls block or allow destination port and usually they are statefull, which means if the packer going out from inbound interface Firewall B, the respond to this packet will automatically allowed back. Lets say it is stateless and doesn`t work that way, in that case the packet coming back to firewall B`s inbound interface from Server B, is source port 443 and destination port is randomly selected by developer comp. Which blocking or opening 443 in Firewall B inbound interface will not change anything. Ping is working and packet is arriving to Server B, and respond get dropped somewhere, in most cases it could be MTU issue specially there is VPN between. There should be another answer with MTU, however MTU is heavy topic for this certification exam.

Selected Answer: C
A and D are incorrect because use port 80 HTTP C is correct due F-B block response API REST. The questions says the packet arrived y server B responsed. So interface incoming in F-B block the return

If it is C and the inbound firewall is blocking port 443, how is the server seeing the request and responding then?

Its performing a 'packet capture'. For instance when using Wireshark you can trace the packet in real time

Selected Answer: C
C makes more sense since TLS should use port 443. A and B are incorrect because outgoing interfaces are not used on this vpn tunnel
