In NSX-T Data Center 2.4, a transport node is a node in a transport zone that provides network connectivity to virtual machines (VMs) and other workloads. The transport node communicates with NSX Manager to receive configuration information and to report status.

The port used by a transport node to communicate with NSX Manager in NSX-T Data Center 2.4 is port 1234. This port is used for both incoming and outgoing communication between the transport node and NSX Manager.

Port 5671 is used by the RabbitMQ message broker service that is used by NSX-T Data Center to manage messaging between NSX Manager and other components.

Port 1235 is used for the North-South traffic between the Tier-0 and Tier-1 routers in NSX-T Data Center.

Port 5678 is used for the communication between NSX Manager and the NSX Controller nodes in NSX-T Data Center.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B (1234).
