Discussion on: TCP and UDP did you ever use them directly?

At the time of warcraft3 I opened portforwarding on my router as well, to be able to open maps myself. Is that what you mean?

you say port 80, did you want to access a local webservice from remote?

So our main application is using the default port 8080 and hosted in IIS so that we can use the url from remote without passing the port. but if I have to deploy any other application with let's say with port 5000, I have to use UDP and TCP to open the port so that I can access the service from the remote.
