Issue
When troubleshooting application and database connectivity issues, verifying the port on which the SQL instance is listening
for connections is a basic and important troubleshooting step.  This is also important information to obtain, to verify this port is open and
not being blocked by any firewall rules.

Cause
Although the default port is 1433, the SQL instance can be configured to listen on any other desired port.

1) Open SQL server Management Studio and connect to the desired instance

2) Start a new query

3) copy the script below and execute

DECLARE @key VARCHAR(50), @RegistryPath VARCHAR(200)
IF (SERVERPROPERTY('INSTANCENAME')) IS NULL
BEGIN
SET @RegistryPath='Software\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNetLib\Tcp'
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @RegistryPath='Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\'+CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),SERVERPROPERTY('INSTANCENAME')) + '\MSSQLServerSuperSocketNetLib\Tcp'
END
EXEC master.dbo.xp_regread 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE', @RegistryPath, 'tcpPort'
