Common Network Port Numbers Flashcards: Protocols, TCP/UDP & Uses
Study 88 cards on common network ports, TCP/UDP transports, service uses, port ranges, and practical protocol distinctions.
เกี่ยวกับเด็คนี้
Build a practical map of common network service ports with 88 independently authored cards. Twelve foundation and distinction cards cover port roles, IANA ranges, independent TCP and UDP namespaces, assignment limits, conventional versus configured ports, client source ports, DNS transport behavior, DHCP endpoints, FTP channels, and common implicit-TLS pairs.
The remaining 76 cards practice 38 mappings in both useful directions: service → conventional or registered port, transport, and concise use; and port/transport → service and concise use. Coverage includes FTP control and active-mode data, SSH/SFTP, Telnet, SMTP relay, DNS, DHCPv4 server and client endpoints, TFTP, HTTP, Kerberos, POP3, NTP, the three NetBIOS services, IMAP, SNMP queries and notifications, BGP, LDAP, HTTPS including HTTP/3, direct-hosted SMB, IKE, syslog, SMTP submission, LDAPS, IMAPS, POP3S, Microsoft SQL Server, L2TP, PPTP, RADIUS authentication, MySQL, RDP, IPsec NAT Traversal, SIP, and PostgreSQL.
This is a focused recall deck, not a copy of the full IANA registry. It excludes exhaustive assignments, port-scanning or attack instructions, firewall policy, every vendor-specific alternate, dynamic service-discovery inventories, and the claim that a port number proves which application produced observed traffic. Registered, default, conventional, and common-use wording stays explicit because services can be reconfigured or negotiated elsewhere.
The sequence establishes the port model first, then mixes web, email, infrastructure, remote-access, file-transfer, network-management, directory, VPN, voice, Windows, and database families. Opposite directions for the same mapping stay at least 38 intervening cards apart. Near-duplicate DNS, DHCP, FTP, SNMP, NetBIOS, and IPsec cues keep at least three unrelated cards between them, and the TLS-pair distinction stays at least three unrelated cards from its closest overlapping mapping. The review scheduler handles continued spacing after installation.
Open Study Contributor independently authored the prompts, answers, mapping choices, organization, metadata, and cover from common networking knowledge checked against the current IANA Service Name and Transport Protocol Port Number Registry, relevant RFCs, and official vendor documentation. Organization and product names identify protocols, services, or sources only; no affiliation or endorsement is claimed. No competitor card text, certification questions, answer keys, course text, or source prose was copied.
The CC0 label applies to the original prompts, answers, organization, metadata, and generated cover to the extent applicable rights exist. It does not claim ownership of protocol facts, standards, organization names, product names, or third-party source material.

การ์ด 1
คำถาม
What does a transport-layer port number identify?
คำตอบ
An application endpoint within a host for one transport protocol. The IP addresses, transport protocol, and source and destination ports together identify a communication flow.
การ์ด 2
คำถาม
Are TCP port 53 and UDP port 53 the same port?
คำตอบ
No. TCP and UDP have independent 16-bit port namespaces, so 53/TCP and 53/UDP are separate transport endpoints.
การ์ด 3
คำถาม
What is the IANA System Port range?
คำตอบ
0–1023. These are also called Well-Known Ports and are assigned by IANA under the stricter System Port procedures.
การ์ด 4
คำถาม
What is the IANA User Port range?
คำตอบ
1024–49151. These are also called Registered Ports and may be assigned by IANA to services.
การ์ด 5
คำถาม
What is the IANA Dynamic or Private Port range?
คำตอบ
49152–65535. IANA does not assign ports in this range; systems commonly use it for temporary or private endpoints.
การ์ด 6
คำถาม
Does an IANA port assignment prove what observed traffic is—or that it is safe?
คำตอบ
No. A registration is a naming convention, not traffic identification, authorization, or a security verdict. Verify the actual protocol and context.
การ์ด 7
คำถาม
Must a service use its registered or conventional port?
คำตอบ
No. Administrators and applications can choose another port, negotiate one dynamically, or discover it through mechanisms such as DNS SRV records.
การ์ด 8
คำถาม
What port roles are typical in a client-server connection?
คำตอบ
The server usually listens on a known destination port, while the client uses a temporary source port. Either side can be configured differently.
การ์ด 9
คำถาม
SSH and SFTP — common server port and transport?
คำตอบ
TCP 22. SSH provides encrypted remote access, and SFTP normally runs as a subsystem inside the same SSH connection.
การ์ด 10
คำถาม
53/UDP or 53/TCP — which service?
คำตอบ
DNS. Routine queries often use UDP, while full DNS implementations also support TCP; zone transfers use TCP.
การ์ด 11
คำถาม
SMTP relay between mail servers — common port and transport?
คำตอบ
TCP 25. SMTP uses it for server-to-server mail transfer; user mail submission normally uses port 587 or implicit TLS on 465.
การ์ด 12
คำถาม
HTTP without TLS — conventional port and transport?
คำตอบ
TCP 80 for conventional HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 connections. The service can be configured on another port.
การ์ด 13
คำถาม
67/UDP — which DHCPv4 endpoint?
คำตอบ
The DHCPv4 server endpoint. Clients send server-directed DHCP messages to UDP port 67.
การ์ด 14
คำถาม
21/TCP — which service and channel?
คำตอบ
FTP control. It carries commands and replies; file data uses a separate connection.
การ์ด 15
คำถาม
SNMP requests and responses — common agent port and transport?

UDP 161. Managers commonly send queries to an SNMP agent there; other SNMP transports exist.
การ์ด 16
คำถาม
1433/TCP — which database service?
คำตอบ
Microsoft SQL Server's default instance. TCP 1433 is the default Database Engine port, but named or custom instances may use another port.
การ์ด 17
คำถาม
23/TCP — which remote-access protocol?
คำตอบ
Telnet. It provides a plaintext remote terminal session and does not protect credentials or traffic with encryption.
การ์ด 18
คำถาม
NTP — usual port and transport?
คำตอบ
UDP 123. NTP normally uses UDP for time synchronization; IANA also has a TCP 123 registration, but that is not the usual NTP transport.
การ์ด 19
คำถาม
Why must a general-purpose DNS implementation support both UDP and TCP?
คำตอบ
UDP handles most routine queries efficiently, while TCP handles cases such as zone transfers and responses that do not fit the chosen UDP path. Both use port 53.
การ์ด 20
คำถาม
POP3 — conventional port and transport?
คำตอบ
TCP 110. POP3 retrieves mail; it can upgrade with STLS, while implicit TLS uses TCP 995.
การ์ด 21
คำถาม
443/TCP or 443/UDP — which web service?
คำตอบ
HTTPS. HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 normally use TLS over TCP 443; HTTP/3 uses QUIC over UDP 443.
การ์ด 22

การ์ด 28
คำถาม
Syslog's conventional UDP transport — port?
คำตอบ
UDP 514. Classic syslog over UDP has no delivery guarantee; TCP 514 is registered to the shell service, not syslog.
การ์ด 29
คำถาม
How do DHCPv4 server and client ports pair up?
คำตอบ
UDP 67 is the server port, and UDP 68 is the client port. Client-to-server messages target 67; server-to-client messages target 68.
การ์ด 30

UDP 4500. It carries IKE and UDP-encapsulated ESP when NAT traversal is in use.
การ์ด 49
คำถาม
5060/UDP or 5060/TCP — which signaling protocol?
คำตอบ
SIP. It commonly uses UDP or TCP 5060 for session signaling; SIP over TLS conventionally uses TCP 5061.
การ์ด 50
คำถาม
Which common dedicated ports distinguish plaintext or STARTTLS-capable services from implicit-TLS variants?
คำตอบ
HTTP 80 ↔ HTTPS 443; IMAP 143 ↔ IMAPS 993; POP3 110 ↔ POP3S 995; LDAP 389 ↔ LDAPS 636. A port alone does not prove that TLS is configured correctly.
