这是我所在组织的一位软件工程师提出的问题。我感兴趣的是最广义的定义。
当前回答
一般来说,你会得到很多理论,但区分这两个概念的最简单方法之一是:
为了获得服务,你需要一个服务号码。这个服务号码称为端口。就这么简单。
例如,HTTP as a service运行在端口80上。
现在,许多人都可以请求该服务,并建立了来自客户机-服务器的连接。会有很多联系。每个连接代表一个客户端。为了维护每个连接,服务器为每个连接创建一个套接字来维护其客户端。
其他回答
套接字是软件中的一种结构。它差不多是一个文件;它有读和写这样的操作。它不是一个物理的东西;它是你的软件引用物理事物的一种方式。
端口是一个类似设备的东西。每台主机都有一个或多个网络(这些是物理网络);主机在每个网络上都有一个地址。每个地址可以有数千个端口。
只有一个套接字可能在某个地址上使用某个端口。套接字分配端口类似于为文件系统I/O分配设备。一旦分配了端口,就没有其他套接字可以连接到该端口。当套接字被关闭时,端口将被释放。
看一下TCP/IP术语。
这些是基本的网络概念,所以我将以一种简单而全面的方式详细解释它们。
插座就像电话(即端到端通信设备) IP就像你的电话号码(即你的插座地址) 端口就像您想要与之交谈的人(即您想从该地址订购的服务) 插座可以是客户端也可以是服务器端(例如,在公司中,客户支持的电话是服务器,但你家里的电话主要是客户端)
因此,网络中的套接字是绑定到一对(ip,端口)=(地址,服务)的虚拟通信设备。
注意:
A machine, a computer, a host, a mobile, or a PC can have multiple addresses , multiple open ports, and thus multiple sockets. Like in an office you can have multiple telephones with multiple telephone numbers and multiple people to talk to. Existence of an open/active port necessitate that you must have a socket bound to it, because it is the socket that makes the port accessible. However, you may have unused ports for the time being. Also note, in a server socket you can bind it to (a port, a specific address of a machine) or to (a port, all addresses of a machine) as in the telephone you may connect many telephone lines (telephone numbers) to a telephone or one specific telephone line to a telephone and still you can reach a person through all these telephone lines or through a specific telephone line. You can not associate (bind) a socket with two ports as in the telephone usually you can not always have two people using the same telephone at the same time . Advanced: on the same machine you cannot have two sockets with same type (client, or server) and same port and ip. However, if you are a client you can open two connections, with two sockets, to a server because the local port in each of these client's sockets is different)
希望它能消除你的疑虑
套接字地址是一个IP地址和端口号
123.132.213.231 # IP address
:1234 # port number
123.132.213.231:1234 # socket address
当两个套接字绑定在一起时,就发生了连接。
In a broad sense, Socket - is just that, a socket, just like your electrical, cable or telephone socket. A point where "requisite stuff" (power, signal, information) can go out and come in from. It hides a lot of detailed stuff, which is not required for the use of the "requisite stuff". In software parlance, it provides a generic way of defining a mechanism of communication between two entities (those entities could be anything - two applications, two physically separate devices, User & Kernel space within an OS, etc)
端口是端点标识符。它区分一个端点和另一个端点。在网络级别,它将一个应用程序与另一个应用程序区分开来,以便网络堆栈可以将信息传递给适当的应用程序。
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。

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.
