SOCKET : -
A TCP connection is a 5-tuple organisation.
It consists of Client Ip,Client port number,Server Ip,Server port,protocol.
Combination of IP address and Port number is known as endpoint and sometimes called as socket.
PORT:-
The purpose of ports is to differentiate multiple endpoints on a given network address. You could say that a port is a virtualised endpoint. This virtualisation makes multiple concurrent connections on a single network interface possible.
