Port 3260 — iscsi

Files

Port 3260 carries iSCSI storage target over TCP. Above 1023, so an ordinary user can open it.

1024–49151. Meant to be applied for, though some numbers here are custom by habit.

Where it sits in 65535

A port number is 16 bits, so it stops at 65535. The narrow band at the left is everything up to 1023.

How to read this

  • A port number is 16 bits, so it runs 0 to 65535. There is no port 65536.
  • Opening anything at or below 1023 needs root on Unix.
  • Plain and encrypted often live on different numbers — 80 and 443, for one.
  • Numbers like 3000 and 8080 were never registered; those are marked as custom.
