Port Numbers - Linux

PORTS NUMBERS : Just as the physical address (MAC address) and the logical address (IP address) helps to route the traffic to a particular machine on a network, it is the port that identifies which service on the machine this traffic is destined to.

List of ports : /etc/services

A port on a specific computer is called a socket. It can be open, closed, listening or have a connection established.
