It accepts that information by using TCP or UDP ports. An easy way to understand ports is to imagine your IP address is a cable box and the ports are the different channels on that cable box.

This paper seeks to reflect a comparative analysis between the two transport layer protocols, which are TCP/IP and UDP/IP, as well to observe the effect of using these two protocols in a client ...
