23 is the "traditional" TELNET port and unsecured TN3270 uses that.

I have seen secured TN3270 over TLS/SSL use port number 992 in several
cases, which is the "traditional" port number for secured TELNET.

On our z/PDT we use a large 5 digit port number that we picked at random.

QWS3270 will let you specify any port number for either secure or unsecure
TN3270 connection.
