Explanation

RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), developed by Microsoft, uses TCP port 3389. It allows users to remotely access and control another computer's graphical desktop interface over a network. IMAP (email retrieval) uses port 143, DHCP (dynamic IP address assignment) uses ports 67/68, and SSH (secure remote shell access) uses port 22. RDP and SSH both provide remote access, but RDP provides a full graphical desktop experience while SSH provides command-line access.
