    Port Guide

    Overview

    A port is a virtual point through which programs running on different computers exchange data. Ports need to be open to allow this data exchange. Microsoft's PortQryUI displays the status of ports on a computer, and can be installed and run on the machine in which ADAudit Plus is installed.
