I heard the exam proctors are SSH experts, so they'll probably try to trick us with those strange options. But I'm not falling for it!

D and E are just weird. Who would use those options? I'm sticking with B and C.

Yeah, I always use -p for port and -o for options. B and C are the way to go.

I agree, D and E seem unnecessary. B and C should work just fine.

I always mix up the port options. I'm just glad I don't have to remember them on the exam!

I always double-check the port option too, it can get confusing.

I'm not sure, but I think C) and D) could also work since they mention the port

I agree with Alise, A) and B) make sense because they specify the port number

B and C are the correct answers. The -p and -o Port=2222 options are the standard ways to specify the port when connecting to an SSH server.
