I am wanting to send some data to a server from a client application to the server via port 5555. I don’t have a window’s server. My question is if I purchase a .Net Framework hosting service. Would I be able to connect the client application to this server. and could I do it by sending a Post. I am new to this, so excuse me if it doesn’t entire make sense. but I am looking for just some little direction. If someone could explain what port 5555 is used for that would be great.
Custom port for data exchange + tcp/ip has been identified to be very difficult across the Internet, due to firewalls/gateways everywhere.
Why not use REST web service or SOAP web service for data exchange? That has been proved to be a firewall friendly approach as it uses port 80 or 443.
