Port Number Lookup
Look up any TCP or UDP port number β 22 (SSH), 80 (HTTP), 443 (HTTPS), 3389 (RDP), 8080, 25565 and 1,500+ IANA-registered services. Find which application runs on a port before opening it on your router.
Type a port number (e.g. 22) or service name (e.g. SSH) to find the matching entry.

About TCP and UDP ports
A port is a 16-bit number (0β65535) that lets multiple services share a single IP address. Ports 0β1023 are well-known and require root privileges; 1024β49151 are registered to specific services; 49152β65535 are dynamic/private and used by clients. Closing unused ports on your router and changing default credentials prevents the most common automated attacks.
Common use cases
- 1Decide whether to open a port on your router β searching "25565" tells you it is the Minecraft server port, while "8080" is a common HTTP alternate (Tomcat, proxies). Know what you are exposing before forwarding it.
- 2Identify a mystery port from netstat or your firewall log β paste the number and immediately see whether it is SSH (22), RDP (3389), MySQL (3306), VNC (5900) or something benign.
- 3Plan firewall rules β confirm IANA-registered services for inbound rules so you don't accidentally allow Telnet (23) when you meant SSH (22) or block Outlook (587/993) when tightening SMTP.
Frequently asked questions
TCP versus UDP β what is the difference?+
TCP is connection-oriented and reliable (web, email, SSH). UDP is fire-and-forget and faster (DNS, VoIP, gaming). Some ports run on both β for example DNS uses TCP/53 and UDP/53.
What are well-known, registered and ephemeral ports?+
Well-known: 0β1023 (assigned by IANA, reserved). Registered: 1024β49151 (apps register with IANA). Ephemeral: 49152β65535 (operating system picks a random one for outbound connections).
Should I open port X on my router?+
Only if you understand the service behind it and trust the device receiving traffic. Internal-only protocols (Telnet, SMB, RDP) should rarely be exposed to the internet.
