List of well-known ports (computing) - Definition and Overview |
|
|
|
|
IANA is responsible for assigning port numbers to specific uses. The well-known ports are those in the range 0-1023. On Unix-derived operating systems, opening a port in this range to receive incoming connections requires root privileges. Registered port numbers are those in the range 1024-49151. Port numbers in the range 49152-65535 are private or dynamic ports, not used by any defined application.
IANA does not enforce this; it is simply a set of recommended uses. Sometimes ports may be used for different applications or protocols than their official IANA designation. This misuse may, for example, be by a Trojan horse. Or it may be a common program that you use every day, but that never got an IANA registered port or port range.
ICANN formed a contract with the US government (http://www.icann.org/general/iana-contract-21mar01.htm) on March 21, 2001, and now performs the IANA's function.
See the IANA list of port assignments (http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers) for a full list.
