no, that's the TCP destination port, nothing todo with the slave

A TCP connection is defined by {sourceip-address,some source port, 
destip-address,destination port}
once established, it's just a bidirectional stream of bytes with no 
interpretation, just like a serial connection over /dev/ttySomething

a Modbus slave number tells one of the parties how to interpret the stuff 
coming in/going out over this stream
