Ephemeral Ports Definition: Ephemeral ports are temporary network ports used by client applications to communicate with servers, typically ranging from port numbers 49152 to 65535.
Ephemeral ports are temporary network ports used by client machines to communicate with servers. These ports are dynamically assigned by the operating system from a predefined range to facilitate client-server communication. Once the communication session is completed, ephemeral ports are released back to the pool for reuse by other connections.
Ephemeral Ports is one of the topics you'll master in the Cisco CCNA Boot Camp.
