Port 8080

Port 8080 is commonly used as an alternative port for web servers. It is used to serve web pages and run various web-based applications. It is especially useful when the standard HTTP port 80 is already in use, or when an application requires a separate port for administrative purposes. Additionally, some proxies and firewalls are configured to allow traffic on port 8080, making it a popular choice for running web-based applications on corporate networks.

Ports those registered with IANA are shown as official ports. The same port number may be unofficialy used by various services or applications. The official usage are listed separately below its usage may change from time to time.
