Answer Posted / srinivas antarvedi
port : a particular port number on a host
socket: a host and a port
like
-> http port = 80
-> when you fire up google.com
the socket on the server side is google.com:80 this is the server side socket
on your local system where you are browsing the socket is
yourip:port above 1024
