CONFIGURING A PC AS A HOST (PORT MAPPING)
The Internet uses
ports
to specify different types of service
requests. For instance, an email message contains a code for
port 110 (POP3 mail services) while a web page request
contains a code for port 80 (HTTP services). This allows the
router to send the requests to the correct host: any marked as
port 110 is routed to the mail server, and any data marked as
port 80 is routed to the web server.
If you want to set up one or more PCs as a host, you must tell the
router what services should be sent to that host. This
configuration is called
port mapping
. TCP/IP, the Internet
protocol standard, has over four thousand ports defined for
different services. Of these, about one thousand are
considered “well-known” ports; these are the ports used most
often. Table 2 lists just a few of the most commonly needed
well-known ports. (Complete lists of all well-known ports are
readily available online; simply do a web site search for
“well-known ports”.)
