Layer 7:
No they don't hit a specific port. The script everyone uses doesn't require a port, even though on the panel of the tool there is a port text field, the variable isn't taken in and used in the usage statement.
Usage statement:
Invalid parameters!
Usage: ./ghp <target url> <method (GET or HEAD or POST)> <number threads to use> <proxy list> <time> [manual ip (0 to disable)] [post parameters (%RANDOM% will be replaced with random shit)]
Layer 4:
Try to attack on an open port, by default 80.
But you can do 53 21 22, whatever. It really depends on what ports are open, I would just use 80.
For me personally,
I use http://network-tools.com/ to lookup the DNS records of the domain to obtain the IP address then I would go onto http://ip-lookup.net/ enter the IP address and see who owns the IP address, it should show you what datacenter owns the certain ipv4 range.
I'm not entirely sure on how to find out the IP through a proxy/vpn as the only way I think is possible is to check the traffic coming in/out using tcpdump or something similar.
