A client creates a packet to send to a server. The client is requesting HTTP service. What number will be used as the destination port number in the sending packet?
- 80
- 67
- 53
- 69
| Explanation & Hint:
HTTP, or HyperText Transfer Protocol, typically uses port 80. This is the standard port used by web browsers and servers for HTTP communication, which is the foundation of data communication for the World Wide Web. So, when a client creates a packet to send to a server requesting HTTP service, the destination port number used in the sending packet will be 80. |
