How to maintain IP Ports and it's working in detail.

                              IP Ports


This article describes ports, how they are used, and how they work.


Ports were developed so that network devices and computers could accept data from multiple sources over the same IP address. Here is a simple example. Your TV service is the Internet, and the ports are your channels. You have many forms of entertainment, news, and information available through many different channels. Lets say 9xM is channel 85 on your TV. The same is true for web servers that run on port 80. Every port has a special purpose just as each channel serves a different television program. While you only have 1 cable TV subscription, you can still receive multiple channels.

Two main types of ports: TCP and UDP. TCP stands for Transmission Control Protocol. UDP stands for User Data Protocol. Some programs on your computer will use TCP ports to communication and other may use UDP. It is important to know the difference between how the two operation. See TCP vs. UDP for an illustrated example.

There are 65,535 TCP and UDP ports available to transmit data with. Ports 0-1023 are reserved for common use. These ports are assigned by the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbering Authority). This means, that every port from 0-1023 will be the same on every system. For example, let's say a server in New York is using port 80, and so is a server Texas. Because port 80 falls in the range of reserved ports, we know both servers are using port 80 for HTTP connections. Viewing a list of known ports can help you determine which type of connections are present on your machine.
Computer or network devices often "listen" on certain ports. For example, a server running web, FTP, and Telnet services will listen on a port for each. Port 80 for web, 21 for FTP, and 23 for telnet. The act of listening simply means the machine is waiting for another device to connect to it. See the illustration below:



Notice that the server is listening for 3 ports over a single IP address (192.168.0.15). It is possible for multiple devices to connect to a single port. Meaning, a telnet server may accept over 100 simultaneous connections to port 23. Once a connection is established it is know as a "session."

About Basic Networking Topology

           Basic Networking Topology This article describes common topologies used for networking. These are a very basic examples, and large networks often use a combination of two or more topologies. Introduction The term "topology" is used to describe the infrastructure of a network. It is a basic map or scheme of how the network is constructed. Viewing the topology of a network is a lot like looking at the map of city. You can see the central points or landmarks. Popular points of the cities are usually surrounded by a dense population of residents. The same is true for computer networks. The popular points (usually servers) are surrounded by residents (client machines) that connect to the server. If you read a networking book about topology, they will probably cover the physical types of topologies like star, ring, bus, and mesh. While these were all commonly used topologies at one point in time, star is the primary topology used today.

Top 5 important Command Prompt Command Hack You Probably Don't Know

5 Command Prompt Hacks You Probably Don’t Know I love the Windows Command prompt because I often get things done faster by typing a command rather than hunting down an icon or nested menu setting. I’ve discovered that as I’ve used the command prompt, I’ve adopted my own shortcuts, I’ll call them hacks, that have really boosted my productivity. Here are my top five: 1. Copy Path on Folder Drop I have a file whose path is C:\xampp\htdocs\Vonster\wp-content\t hemes\twentytwelve that I needed but look at that folder path: if I manually type it I’ll instantly make myself susceptible to all kinds of typos plus I’m lazy and couldn’t care less about typing folder paths. To paste the full path, just drag the folder and drop it into the command prompt. In my case I typed cd in the command prompt and then dragged my folder into the command window. trickntools.blogspot.com 2.
