    The default instance of SQL Server listens on Port 1433. Port 1434 is used by the SQL Browser Service which allows connections to named instances of SQL Server that use dynamic ports with out having to know what port each named instance is using, especially since this can change between restarts of the named instance.

    Books Online should provide more details.

  • Hi,

    When SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 clients request SQL Server resources on a named instance, the client network library sends a UDP message to the server using port 1434

    Please go through with the below URL for detail

    you don't have to use TCP\UDP 1434, you can just connect using IP,portnumber

    e.g.

    10.10.10.45, 1528

  • One more note. By default , DAC uses 1434 port.
