If I have a URL like:
http://www.example.com:9090/test.html
Then I know that www.example.com is the host name, but what do you call http://www.example.com:9090? Is there some kind of established name for that?
I don’t know the name for when it has the scheme, but the hostname with the port is collectively known as the
Authority. A nice explanationhere.
