A port is a communications endpoint on a computer, referred to as a host. A port-server operates on a specific port number of a specific port for communication.
Port 23
port 2512 for server-to-server directed communications and port 2513 for CMC

The client process needs a temporary port number. It tells the server to which port to reply (the TCP or UDP header includes information about the source and the destination port). The client, on the other hand, doesn't know in advance what port the server uses - unless the server uses a standard port number.The client process needs a temporary port number.

A Web server - or most other servers - will HAVE TO reserve a port number, to function correctly. For a Web server, this is usually port 80, but this can be changed to any other port.A Web server - or most other servers - will HAVE TO reserve a port number, to function correctly.

FTP is a TCP based service exclusively. There is no UDP component to FTP. FTP is an unusual service in that it utilizes two ports, a 'data' port and a 'command' port (also known as the control port). Traditionally these are port 21 for the command port and port 20 for the data port. The confusion begins however, when we find that depending on the mode, the data port is not always on port 20. In active mode FTP the client connects from a random unprivileged port (N > 1023) to the FTP server's command port, port 21. Then, the client starts listening to port N+1 and sends the FTP command PORT N+1 to the FTP server. The server will then connect back to the client's specified data port from its local data port, which is port 20. From the server-side firewall's standpoint, to support active mode FTP the following communication channels need to be opened: * FTP server's port 21 from anywhere (Client initiates connection) * FTP server's port 21 to ports > 1023 (Server responds to client's control port) * FTP server's port 20 to ports > 1023 (Server initiates data connection to client's data port) * FTP server's port 20 from ports > 1023 (Client sends ACKs to server's data port) In order to resolve the issue of the server initiating the connection to the client a different method for FTP connections was developed. This was known as passive mode, or PASV, after the command used by the client to tell the server it is in passive mode. In passive mode FTP the client initiates both connections to the server, solving the problem of firewalls filtering the incoming data port connection to the client from the server. When opening an FTP connection, the client opens two random unprivileged ports locally (N > 1023 and N+1). The first port contacts the server on port 21, but instead of then issuing a PORT command and allowing the server to connect back to its data port, the client will issue the PASV command. The result of this is that the server then opens a random unprivileged port (P > 1023) and sends the PORT P command back to the client. The client then initiates the connection from port N+1 to port P on the server to transfer data. From the server-side firewall's standpoint, to support passive mode FTP the following communication channels need to be opened: * FTP server's port 21 from anywhere (Client initiates connection) * FTP server's port 21 to ports > 1023 (Server responds to client's control port) * FTP server's ports > 1023 from anywhere (Client initiates data connection to random port specified by server) * FTP server's ports > 1023 to remote ports > 1023 (Server sends ACKs (and data) to client's data port)
the server will run in a specific port ,by sending request to that port in a specific format we can access the server for accessing the server one must know it's IP address and port in which it is running
The default Port number for Active Direcotory server is 389
The only way to change the port number, is to pay for the server program. The free version of Ventrilo Server can only be run on port 3784.

Conventionally, an HTTP server listens on port 80. Regardless of the brand of web server that you are running, the server will typically listen for HTTP traffic on port 80 and HTTPS traffic on port 443.
