    Hey,

    im having a bit of a problem with my university assignment so far been writing on http, finger and other protocols but i have a question that says why should network managers configure ports even though they are registered.


    if anyone could point me in the right direction that would be really good:)

    Hi There

    What do you mean by "registered"?

    As far as I am aware, network admins can either open or close ports on a device such as firewall.

    I have no idea what registering a port is? Register a port with what?

    Perhaps you could post the question!

    Regards
