In general, there are no default port numbers assigned to Entire Net-Work Kernels or clients. These are dynamically assigned by Entire Net-Work when the Kernel or client is started, unless you specify a specific port or range of ports to use when you define the Kernel or client. If you set the port number to "0", the Entire Net-Work will dynamically assign a port.
