Starsiege: Tribes Server
Port 28001 is commonly used for hosting Starsiege: Tribes version 1 game servers, allowing players to connect, communicate, and participate in online matches. It facilitates the primary server communication needed during gameplay sessions..
Overview
Port 28001 is utilized primarily by dedicated servers running Starsiege: Tribes, a popular multiplayer first-person shooter released in 1998. This port enables data transmission between clients and the hosting game server, including player inputs, game state updates, and synchronization data.
Protocol Details
The game typically uses custom protocols over TCP or UDP, but in many cases, connection implementations rely on proprietary messaging structures optimized for low latency and high responsiveness critical in fast-paced multiplayer environments. Given no official TCP or UDP assignment, it is often dependent on client-server configuration.
Deployment Use Case
Game server administrators configure port 28001 to allow inbound connections from client machines. Players direct their game clients to this port to locate and join multiplayer matches, meaning it serves as a central point of network operation for real-time game hosting.
