Usually its port 21. Though alot of people fail to realise that just because that's the default setting doesn't mean you cant change it.
FTP servers listen on port 21. The data transfers happen on a different port, which is usually done in passive mode, on a port above 1024.
Generally port 21 is for FTP 22 for FTP using SSH 990 FTP using SSL
The protocol is FTP and the port number 21 conquerorthecomputer.blogspot.com
TCP port 21
TCP port 20 is used by FTP (File Transfer Protocol) for data transfer. FTP also uses port 21.
The packet header source IP address and TCP header source port number
TCP has no default port. Individual applications - such as FTP, DNS, or Telnet - do have default ports.
tcp
No - FTP is a subprotocol in TCP/IP. TCP/IP is a set of standards for describing addressing, transport, and delivery/routing of information across networks. FTP is a protocol that allows a file to be transferred from one system to another, using TCP/IP.
used TCP port 110.
FTP uses TCP.Usage of Transport Layer protocol (tcp or udp) depends upon various applications.Such as FTP uses TCP, TFTP uses UDP.
tcp at the transport layer handles multiplexing with address called port number of service access points (SAP).For every service that is using TCP at one particular machine is assigned a port nuber or SAP. When the datagram is being sent the TCP software appends the SAP or the port number of the source and the destination service. At the reciving end the TCP software again extracts the destination SAP and forwards the datagram to the appropiate service. Now if there are multiple source services and multilple destination services each with a unique ID, the TCP software can distinguish between different datagram belonging to different services. Thus with the use of SAP or port numbers TCP can handle multiplexing....
