TCP 700
Synopsis
- TCP port 700 is officially assigned to the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP).
- EPP is used by domain registries and registrars to provision domains, contacts, and hosts.
- Real-world registry operators that provide EPP services on TCP/700 (typically over TLS) include Verisign (.com/.net), Public Interest Registry (.org), Identity Digital/Donuts (many new gTLDs), and CentralNic.
- Many ccTLD registries (e.g., CZ.NIC for .cz, EURid for .eu, Nominet for .uk) also expose registrar EPP interfaces on TCP/700, accessible only to accredited, whitelisted clients.
- EPP client/server software and toolkits (e.g., Net::EPP, epp-python, OpenSRS/Tucows EPP gateways, FRED-based registry systems) commonly default to TCP port 700 for connections.
