What is the default Port Number for HTTP?

• The default Port Number for HTTP is 80.
• A port is an endpoint of communication in computer networking.
• A port is a logical construct that, at the operating system's software level, identifies a particular activity or class of network service. There are situations when port numbers appear in URLs or other universal resource locators (URLs).
• By default, HTTP uses port 80 and HTTPS uses port 443, but a URL like http://www.example.com:8080/path/ specifies that the web browser connects instead to port 8080 of the HTTP server.
