Which of the following ports are used for communications in Modbus TCP?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Modbus TCP is a variant of the Modbus family of simple, networked protocols aimed at industrial automation applications. Unlike the original Modbus protocol, which runs over serial links, Modbus TCP runs over TCP/IP networks.

Port 502 is the standard TCP port used for Modbus TCP communications. This port is designated for Modbus messages encapsulated in a TCP/IP wrapper, facilitating communication between Modbus devices and management systems over an IP network.

Knowing the correct port number is crucial for network configuration, security settings, and troubleshooting communications within a Modbus-enabled ICS/SCADA environment.

I'm going with D) 502. It's the standard port for Modbus TCP, just like how 80 is the standard port for HTTP. Easy to remember!

D) 502 - Modbus TCP uses the same port as the original Modbus protocol. I'm not sure why the other options are there, but 502 is the correct answer.

Hmm, I'm pretty sure it's 502. Modbus TCP is just the TCP version of the classic Modbus protocol, so the port number should be the same.
