    List of TCP and UDP port numbers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 6/12/11 3:20 PM List of TCP and UDP port numbers From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from TCP and UDP port numbers) This is a list of Internet socket port numbers used by protocols of the Transport Layer of the Internet Protocol Suite for the establishment of host-to-host communications. Originally, these port numbers were used by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), but are used also for the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), and the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP). SCTP and DCCP services usually use a port number that matches the service of the corresponding TCP or UDP implementation if they exist. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is responsible for maintaining the official assignments of port numbers for specific uses.[1] However, many unofficial uses of both well-known and registered port numbers occur in practice. Contents 1 Table legend 2 Well-known ports: 0–1023 3 Registered ports: 1024–49151 4 Dynamic, private or ephemeral ports: 49152–65535 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Table legend Color coding of table entries Official Port/application combination is registered with IANA Unofficial Port/application combination is not registered with IANA Conflict Port is in use for multiple applications (may be official or unofficial) Well-known ports: 0–1023 The port numbers in the range from 0 to 1023 are the well-known ports. They are used by system processes that provide widely-used types of network services.

  • List of TCP and UDP Port Numbers from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    List of TCP and UDP port numbers From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This is a list of Internet socket port numbers used by protocols of the transport layer of the Internet Protocol Suite for the establishment of host-to-host connectivity. Originally, port numbers were used by the Network Control Program (NCP) in the ARPANET for which two ports were required for half- duplex transmission. Later, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) needed only one port for full- duplex, bidirectional traffic. The even-numbered ports were not used, and this resulted in some even numbers in the well-known port number /etc/services, a service name range being unassigned. The Stream Control Transmission Protocol database file on Unix-like operating (SCTP) and the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) also systems.[1][2][3][4] use port numbers. They usually use port numbers that match the services of the corresponding TCP or UDP implementation, if they exist. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is responsible for maintaining the official assignments of port numbers for specific uses.[5] However, many unofficial uses of both well-known and registered port numbers occur in practice. Contents 1 Table legend 2 Well-known ports 3 Registered ports 4 Dynamic, private or ephemeral ports 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Table legend Official: Port is registered with IANA for the application.[5] Unofficial: Port is not registered with IANA for the application. Multiple use: Multiple applications are known to use this port. Well-known ports The port numbers in the range from 0 to 1023 are the well-known ports or system ports.[6] They are used by system processes that provide widely used types of network services.

  • Network Working Group J. Postel Request for Comments: 840 ISI April 1983
    Network Working Group J. Postel Request for Comments: 840 ISI April 1983 Official Protocols This RFC identifies the documents specifying the official protocols used in the Internet. Annotations identify any revisions or changes planned. To first order, the official protocols are those in the Internet Protocol Transition Workbook (IPTW) dated March 1982. There are several protocols in use that are not in the IPTW. A few of the protocols in the IPTW have been revised these are noted here. In particular, the mail protocols have been revised and issued as a volume titled "Internet Mail Protocols" dated November 1982. There is a volume of protocol related information called the Internet Protocol Implementers Guide (IPIG) dated August 1982. A few of the protocols (in particular the Telnet Options) have not been revised for many years, these are found in the old ARPANET Protocol Handbook (APH) dated January 1978. This document is organized as a sketchy outline. The entries are protocols (e.g., Transmission Control Protocol). In each entry there are notes on status, specification, comments, other references, dependencies, and contact. The status is one of: required, recommended, elective, or experimental. The specification identifies the protocol defining documents. The comments describe any differences from the specification or problems with the protocol. The other references identify documents that comment on or expand on the protocol. The dependencies indicate what other protocols are called upon by this protocol. The contact indicates a person

  • Configuring IP Slas UDP Echo Operations
    Configuring IP SLAs UDP Echo Operations This module describes how to configure an IP Service Level Agreements (SLAs) User Datagram Protocol (UDP) Echo operation to monitor end-to-end response time between a Cisco device and devices using IPv4 or IPv6. UDP echo accuracy is enhanced by using the Cisco IP SLAs Responder at the destination Cisco device. This module also demonstrates how the results of the UDP echo operation can be displayed and analyzed to determine how a UDP application is performing. • Finding Feature Information, page 1 • Restrictions for IP SLAs UDP Echo Operations, page 1 • Information About IP SLAs UDP Echo Operations, page 2 • How to Configure IP SLAs UDP Echo Operations, page 3 • Configuration Examples for IP SLAs UDP Echo Operations, page 12 • Additional References, page 12 • Feature Information for the IP SLAs UDP Echo Operation, page 13 Finding Feature Information Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module.
