Puertos

In computer networking, "puertos" (or "ports") are like entry points on a device, allowing it to handle different types of communication simultaneously. Think of a port as a door labeled with a number, which directs specific data to the right application or service, such as web browsing (port 80) or email (port 25). They help computers organize internet traffic efficiently, ensuring that data reaches the correct software component. Ports are essential for network communication, enabling multiple processes to run concurrently without interference.
