There is no such port number of TCp/IP.
Port number is assigned to a specified protocol not to
complete protocol suite.TCP/IP is a complete protocol
package.Actully when the data is transferred from oone host
to another hos it requires 3 types of address ...1st is the
hardware or MAC ddress which is managed in data-link layer
for the link of sorce and destnation segment.2nd is the ip
address managed in network layer to identify the source and
destination host.3rd is the socket address managed in
transport layer....your question is related to socket
address....Socket adddress is managed to link source
application process to destintion application proicess.A
socket address consists of a ip address +_port number.
Each protocol is assigned with a specified port
number...through the port number the destination host can
find which protocol is used to encapsulate ,encrypt and
transfer the data.
The simple answer to ur question is that ....each protocol
is identified on a network by its port number and served
according to its port number not by its name.
