How many voip & streaming ports does SubnetKit list?
9, covering TCP/UDP and TCP. 6 of them are formally registered with IANA.
Are voip & streaming ports secure by default?
1 out of 9 are encrypted by default. Check each port's page for its specific encryption status.
Which voip & streaming port has the lowest number?
Port 554 (RTSP). Port 554 is RTSP, the Real Time Streaming Protocol used to control playback of streaming media, most commonly IP security cameras. RTSP sets up and controls the session while the actual audio and video usually flow over RTP on separate ports.
