Port Numbers

Default ports (as defined by the browser) are stripped by the browser and treat URLs the same, this means basically that http://someurl is the same as http://someurl:80 and https://someurl.

When the domain is a non-primary / secondary domain, the port becomes part of the unique identifier and will be recorded independently.

  • 10.0.0.61:55 is not the same as 10.0.0.61:555 or 10.0.0.61
  • blue.local.something is not the same as blue.local.something:8080
