Turn your CompTIA port notes into flashcards with AI

Ready-made port lists are fine for a quick look, but they won't match the ports your instructor or textbook emphasizes. DeckOwl builds flashcards from your own material, so you drill the exact protocols on your exam.

Why generate your own port cards

Memorizing which port belongs to which protocol is one of the most repeated tasks in CompTIA exam prep. CompTIA port flashcards work best when they come from the same material you will be tested on, such as your Network+ or Security+ course notes and the port table in your textbook.

Example CompTIA Network+ port flashcards

Which port does SSH use?TCP 22. SSH provides encrypted remote command-line access, replacing unencrypted Telnet on TCP 23.

Which port does DNS use?TCP and UDP 53. UDP handles most standard queries, while TCP is used for zone transfers and large responses.

Which ports do HTTP and HTTPS use?TCP 80 for HTTP and TCP 443 for HTTPS, which wraps HTTP in TLS encryption.

Which ports does SNMP use?UDP 161 for queries to agents and UDP 162 for traps sent from agents to a manager.

Which port does RDP use?TCP 3389. Remote Desktop Protocol gives graphical remote access to Windows machines.

Generate the full set

Built from your material

Upload a PDF, slides, a DOCX, plain-text notes or a photo of a page. Text recognition reads the photos.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know fade into longer intervals, so port numbers stick.

Study in the browser

The free plan lets you study generated cards in the browser with 5 generations a week. Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV are on Plus.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, slides, a document or a photo of your port table or textbook page.

Review the generated cards

DeckOwl turns the material into question-and-answer cards. Edit any card before you start.

Study on a schedule

Work through the deck daily. Spaced repetition brings back the ports you keep missing.

Generic lists often include ports your course never covers and skip the ones it stresses. Uploading your own pages means the deck reflects your instructor's emphasis, including the TCP and UDP distinctions that trip up many candidates.

Spaced repetition then does the scheduling. Ports you already know are reviewed less often, and the ones you keep confusing, like 143 versus 993, come back until they are reliable.

Frequently asked questions

Which ports should I memorize for CompTIA Network+?

Focus on the ports your course and objectives list, which usually include common services like SSH on 22, SMTP on 25, DNS on 53, HTTP and HTTPS on 80 and 443, and RDP on 3389. Confirm the list against your exam objectives.

How should I study port numbers for a CompTIA exam?

Group ports by function, such as email, file transfer and remote access, and learn the transport protocol with each number. Review them in short daily sessions so the recall sticks.
