An IP address is the address of a computer on a network.
A port is a number between 1 and 65535.
A socket is one half a channel of communication between two computers over a network on a particular port. (the other half is the corresponding socket on the other computer)
A process can open a socket to a particular IP address on a specific port.
A process can also open a socket to receive connections from anyone on a specific port.
