What ports are available for RDP?
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a Microsoft proprietary protocol that enables remote connections to other computers, typically over TCP port 3389. It provides network access for a remote user over an encrypted channel.
What is the best port for RDP?
It’s best to pick one of the port numbers between 49152 and 65535 because these are dynamic or private ports and are not likely to be used by any application or service that you are running. If you prefer a port number with four digits, just pick a random port number higher than 5000 and you should be in good shape.
