What governs which individual port a modem will be served by - the physical connection or is there something in the config?

Both. The physical connection governs which ports downstream and upstream a modem
can connect to, configuration then decides which ones it does connect to.
That's why the DOCSIS 3 devices don't attach to the DOCSIS 2 network - they lock to it then are pushed by configuration to the DOCSIS 3 network.
