Any Port in a Datastorm

It seems like every day there is a new Internet service that uses some new set of poorly-documented, unregistered ports. I created this page to gather together all the information I could find about the ports used by these new services, for use by firewall administrators and other network monitors.

• "dyn" in the ports field denotes dynamically allocated port(s), usually in the range >=1024 <=65535
• A name in the ports field (e.g. LDAP) indicates that service is also required
• A plus sign + in the ports field indicates the service may use a series of ports starting at the specified one
• An asterisk * in the Notes field indicates that the ports are IANA registered

When a specific port is registered it is usually assigned for both TCP and UDP even though only one or the other may be required. Where possible I have only shown the required ones.

I totally just made all that up ^
