Here is the Mnemonic that I wrote to help me remember TCP and UDP Port Numbers

Below are my mnemonics for Cisco Syslog Severity and Cyber Kill Chain

Failed Firewalls Show That Simple Technical Digressions Help Krackers Penetrate Into Laughably Secure Hidden Resources

Port Numberdescription
20FTP Data. Remember failed ends with a D, for data.
21FTP Control. Control ends with a L, and firewall
has two L's, which look like one's.
two 1's reminds me FTP control is port 21.
22SHow is SSH, port 22
23That is Telnet
25Simple is "Simple Mail Transfer Protocol", SMTP
49Technical is TACACS. Port 49. I have to brute force remembering this one
53Digressions is DNS, Port 53.
80Help is HTTP, port 80.
88Krackers is Kerberos. port 88.
110Penetrate is POP3, email
143Into is IMAP, port 143
389Laughably is LDAP
443Secret Hidden is SSL/HTTPS, port 443. Hidden as in encrypted.
3389Resources is RDP, port 3389. Remote Desktop Protocol.
I don't know if it is on the port list, but it is significant enough to add it to the list.
RDP is pretty fundamental in Management of Windows Networks.
