For minecraft, what application type is minecraft when making a PC sever? [closed]

So I'm making, or at least trying to, a minecraft PC server. Now I'm not going to play with per say, at least not yet. So I'm asking is when port forwarding on my At&t u-verse router, what should I add as the program type? Port wise, I'll figure it out.


Solution 1:

The Minecraft PC (Java Edition) Server is, exactly like the game, a Java Application.

Due to how it is built, it uses an encrypted TCP connection on port 25565 to communicate between the server and the clients.
