About this tool
Port Number Lookup is a fast, offline-friendly reference for the TCP and UDP ports that show up most often in real production environments. Search by port number (try 443, 22, or 5432), by service name (ssh, postgres, mqtt), by protocol (TCP, UDP, or SCTP), by IANA range (well-known, registered, or dynamic), or by category (web, email, database, VPN, messaging, and more). Each entry explains what the port is for, which protocols it uses, whether it is officially registered with IANA or a de-facto convention, and the security or operational nuances most people care about: which mail submission port to use, why 25 is blocked by many ISPs, when DHCP needs both 67 and 68, why exposing 2375 or 6379 publicly is dangerous, and where modern alternatives like DoT (853), DoH (443), or WireGuard (51820) live. The page covers more than a hundred curated services across web, email, file transfer, remote access, databases, directories, messaging, media, VPN, and DevOps tooling. Copy the port number or the full port-plus-service string to your clipboard, or scan the cards to find the one you need. Everything runs in your browser. There is no signup and no network call to look anything up.
