Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The range 1024 to 4999 is reserved for ephemeral ports, which are used by clients to establish a connection with a service running on a well-known port. Well-known ports are typically numbered from 0 to 1023 and are reserved for commonly used services, such as HTTP (port 80) or SMTP (port 25). Therefore, the correct choice is B, as the range 1024 to 4999 is not reserved for well-known ports.
