Number of logical ports ranges from _____ to _____ The numbers are
SOLUTION
The numbers are pre-assigned by IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) which ranges from 0 – 65535. A port number is a 16-bit unsigned integer, thus ranging from 0 to 65535. All the used protocols are assigned with a unique port number.
