Home/Network/Well Known Ports Lookup

Well Known Ports Lookup

Search common network ports by number or by service name and see what runs on each one, whether it uses TCP, UDP or both, and a short note about the service. Type 443 to find HTTPS, or type a word like mail, database or ssh to list every related port. Ports are how a single machine keeps many services apart, and remembering which number belongs to which service is a constant small friction when reading firewall rules, configuring servers or diagnosing a connection that will not open. This reference covers the well known and widely used registered ports for web, email, file transfer, remote access, databases, DNS and more. Everything is built into the page, so the lookup is instant and works with no internet connection. Nothing you search for is transmitted, since there are no lookups against any server.
