这个问题已经有了理论上的答案。我想举一个实际的例子来解释这个问题，让大家对Socket和Port有一个更清晰的理解。

我在这里找到的

This example will walk you thru the process of connecting to a website, such as Wiley. You would open your web browser (like Mozilla Firefox) and type www.wiley.com into the address bar. Your web browser uses a Domain Name System (DNS) server to look up the name www.wiley.com to identify its IP address is. For this example, the address is 192.0.2.100. Firefox makes a connection to the 192.0.2.100 address and to the port where the application layer web server is operating. Firefox knows what port to expect because it is a well-known port . The well-known port for a web server is TCP port 80. The destination socket that Firefox attempts to connect is written as socket:port, or in this example, 192.0.2.100:80. This is the server side of the connect, but the server needs to know where to send the web page you want to view in Mozilla Firefox, so you have a socket for the client side of the connection also. The client side connection is made up of your IP address, such as 192.168.1.25, and a randomly chosen dynamic port number. The socket associated with Firefox looks like 192.168.1.25:49175. Because web servers operate on TCP port 80, both of these sockets are TCP sockets, whereas if you were connecting to a server operating on a UDP port, both the server and client sockets would be UDP sockets.

从Oracle Java教程:

套接字是网络上运行的两个程序之间双向通信链路的一个端点。套接字与端口号绑定，以便TCP层可以识别数据要发送到的应用程序。

它们是来自两个不同领域的术语:“端口”是TCP/IP网络的概念，“套接字”是API(编程)的东西。“套接字”是通过将端口和主机名或网络适配器组合成一个数据结构(可以用来发送或接收数据)而形成的(在代码中)。

终于. .太多的人将套接字概念连接到双端点通信，主要是在TCP/IP协议上。但是:

NO - Socket is not related to a two-endpoint communication. It's the local endpoint, which can or cannot be connected on the other side (Think about a server socket listening for incoming connection) NO - Socket it's not strictly related to TCP/IP. It is defined with a protcol, which can be TCP/IP, but can be anything else. For example you can have socket that communicates over files. You can also implement a new protocol yourself to have a communication over USB lamp which sends data by flashing: that would still be a socket from the application point of view.

关于端口概念，你在其他答案上读到的是正确的。Port通常是TCP或UDP数据包中的数字值(2字节，0-65535)。我要强调的是，TCP或UPD不一定用于IP之上。所以:

不-说端口是TCP/IP或UDP/IP的一部分是不对的。它是TCP或UDP或任何其他定义和使用它的协议的一部分。IP不知道什么是端口。

端口:

端口可以指物理连接点 用于外部设备，如串行、并行和USB端口。 术语端口也指某些以太网连接点 如集线器、交换机或路由器上的那些。

套接字:

套接字表示两个网络应用程序之间的单个连接。 这两个应用程序名义上运行在不同的计算机上， 但是套接字也可以用于单台计算机上的进程间通信。 应用程序可以创建多个套接字用于相互通信。 套接字是双向的，这意味着连接的任何一方都能够发送和接收数据。

An application consists of pair of processes which communicate over the network (client-server pair). These processes send and receive messages, into and from the network through a software interface called socket. Considering the analogy presented in the book "Computer Networking: Top Down Approach". There is a house that wants to communicate with other house. Here, house is analogous to a process, and door to a socket. Sending process assumes that there is a infrastructure on the other side of the door that will transport the data to the destination. Once the message is arrived on the other side, it passes through receiver's door (socket) into the house (process). This illustration from the same book can help you: Sockets are part of transport layer, which provides logical communication to applications. This means that from application's point of view both hosts are directly connected to each other, even though there are numerous routers and/or switches between them. Thus a socket is not a connection itself, it's the end point of the connection. Transport layer protocols are implemented only on hosts, and not on intermediate routers. Ports provide means of internal addressing to a machine. The primary purpose it to allow multiple processes to send and receive data over the network without interfering with other processes (their data). All sockets are provided with a port number. When a segment arrives to a host, the transport layer examines the destination port number of the segment. It then forwards the segment to the corresponding socket. This job of delivering the data in a transport layer segment to the correct socket is called de-multiplexing. The segment's data is then forwarded to the process attached to the socket.
