How to find IP address for a port and open the port

Hello, our administrator is out on vacation and I'm trying to locate an IP address for a particular port. I have the port number, but no name or address. I was told that I need to open a port in order to connect to the new client software I had downloaded. My firewall is on and I believe I need to add this new port to the "Exceptions" section of the firewall?

Also, my operating system is Windows XP.

I am just a programmer. I have no clue to how to play with ports. Please help!

Thanks!!!
