AZ-303 Exam - Question 184


You create an Azure Storage account named contosostorage.

You plan to create a file share named data.

Users need to map a drive to the data file share from home computers that run Windows 10.

Which outbound port should you open between the home computers and the data file share?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

To map a drive to an Azure file share from Windows 10 home computers, the SMB protocol, which uses TCP port 445, must be open. Port 445 is specifically used for SMB communication, enabling file sharing over the network. Opening port 445 will allow users to access and map the Azure file share without issues.

just to add, they specify windows 10 because it will use SMB 3.0 which is internet safe (port 445) .. if it was legacy windows O/S you would need to disable old versions of SMB as its not best practice to open SMB protocol (previously) - should be forced to use SMB 3.0
