How do client processes have their port numbers assigned?
Both server applications and client applications have port numbers. A server application uses a specific port number to uniquely identify this server application. The selected port number is assigned to the client for the duration of the connection, and is then made available to other processes.
What ports does X windows use?
The X server acts as a go-between for the user and the client programs, accepting requests on TCP port 6000 for graphical output (windows) from the client programs and displaying them to the user (display), and receiving user input (keyboard, mouse) and transmitting it to the client programs.

Why is my TCP not connecting to Port 1600?
I can also connect to port 8080 without any problems. Any ideas why the connection to port 1600 fails? As @SKi suggested, the problem may come from trying to connect to an IPv6 address instead of the IPv4 address that you are listening to.

What does it mean when a TCP connection fails?
If you see “Connection timed out”, “Connection reset by host”, “Could not open connection”, or “Connection failed”, either there is some sort of packet filtering between the two computers or the service is not currently waiting on the specified port. If you want to test a TCP service on your local computer, use the IP address 127.0.0.1.
How does the server find out what client port to send to?
The port number is always bound to a listening process. Since only the server is listening for incoming connections, we don’t need to bind on the client side The server will keep on listeninig on that port number. The client will send a connect () request.
