For example 4.9.6 says,

"Ports can always be represented as declared objects connected as
follows:
- If an input port, then a continuous assignment from an outside
expression to a local (input) net or variable
- If an output port, then a continuous assignment from a local output
expression to an outside net or variable
- If an inout port, then a non-strength-reducing transistor connecting
the local net to an outside net"

Shalom
