Port names
Port are divided into three ranges: the Common Ports, the Registered Ports, and Private Ports.
The Common Ports are those from 0 through 1023.
The Registered Ports are those from 1024 through 49151
The Private Ports are those from 49152 through 65535
Common Ports
The Common Ports are assigned by the IANA and on most systems can only be used by system (or root) processes or by programs executed by privileged users.
Ports are used in the TCP [RFC793] to name the ends of logical connections which carry long term conversations. For the purpose of providing services to unknown callers, a service contact port is defined. This list specifies the port used by the server process as its contact port.
