A client connects to a server and attempts to pull a web page. What port would appear in the destination field of the requesting machine’s TCP header?

A. 23

B. 25

C. 80

D. 88

E. 110

Solution

C is correct. The port number for HTTP, used to pull HTML web pages, is 80.

A, B, D, and E are incorrect. A is incorrect because 23 is the port number for Telnet. B is incorrect because 25 is the port number for SMTP. D is incorrect because 88 is the port number for Kerberos. E is incorrect because 110 is the port number for POP3.
