NameNode - http://localhost:50070/
JobTracker - http://localhost:50030/

Answer 1

Define your choice of ports by setting properties dfs.http.address for Namenode and mapred.job.tracker.http.address for Jobtracker in conf/core-site.xml:

<configuration>

    <property>
        <name>dfs.http.address</name>
        <value>50070</value>
    </property>

    <property>
        <name>mapred.job.tracker.http.address</name>
        <value>50030</value>
    </property>

</configuration>
