Show answer
Answer: BC
Explanation
NX-API uses HTTP/HTTPS as its transport. CLIs are encoded into the HTTP/HTTPS POST body. Starting with Cisco NX-OS Release 9.2 (1), the NX-API feature is enabled by default on HTTPS port 443. HTTP port 80 is disabled. NX-API is also supported through UNIX Domain Sockets for applications running natively on the host or within Guest Shell. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/dcn/nx-os/nexus9000/102x/programmability/cisco-nexus-9000-series-nx-os-programmability-guide-release-102x/m-n9k-nx-api-cli-101x.html#:~:text=NX-API%20uses%20HTTP%2FHTTPS%20as%20its%20transport.%20CLIs%20are,natively%20on%20the%20host%20or%20within%20Guest%20Shell.
