  2. Port knocking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_knocking

    In computer networking, port knocking is a method of externally opening ports on a firewall by generating a connection attempt on a set of prespecified closed ports. Once a correct sequence of connection attempts is received, the firewall rules are dynamically modified to allow the host which sent the connection attempts to connect over specific port(s).

  3. List of TCP and UDP port numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_TCP_and_UDP_port...

    This is a list of TCP and UDP port numbers used by protocols for operation of network applications. The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) only need one port for bidirectional traffic. TCP usually uses port numbers that match the services of the corresponding UDP implementations, if they exist, and vice versa.

    Finally, since the XOFF/XON codes are sent in-band, they cannot appear in the data being transmitted without being mistaken for flow control commands. Any data containing the XOFF/XON codes thus must be encoded in some manner for proper transmission, with corresponding overhead. This is frequently done with some kind of escape sequence.

  6. Firewall pinhole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_pinhole

    In computer networking, a firewall pinhole is a port that is not protected by a firewall to allow a particular application to gain access to a service on a host in the network protected by the firewall. [1] [2] Leaving ports open in firewall configurations exposes the protected system to potentially malicious abuse.

  7. Port (computer networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_(computer_networking)

    In computer networking, a port or port number is a number assigned to uniquely identify a connection endpoint and to direct data to a specific service. At the software level, within an operating system , a port is a logical construct that identifies a specific process or a type of network service .

  8. UDP hole punching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UDP_hole_punching

    A and B each begin a UDP conversation with S; the NAT devices N A and N B create UDP translation states and assign temporary external port numbers ePort A and ePort B. S examines the UDP packets to get the source port used by N A and N B (the external NAT ports ePort A and ePort B).
