justonce01 2 Posted October 16, 2024 I have noticed that the server is listening to a TCP port, not usually mentioned by the guides. It seems that the port is also changing and randomly assigned whenever I restart the server $ ss -tulpn Netid State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port Process udp UNCONN 0 0 0.0.0.0:12780 0.0.0.0:* users:(("enfMain",pid=7567,fd=150)) udp UNCONN 0 0 0.0.0.0:12782 0.0.0.0:* users:(("enfMain",pid=7567,fd=149)) udp UNCONN 0 0 0.0.0.0:12784 0.0.0.0:* users:(("enfMain",pid=7567,fd=167)) tcp LISTEN 0 128 127.0.0.1:43465 0.0.0.0:* users:(("enfMain",pid=7567,fd=162)) In the case above, it's 43465 TCP. What is this port used for and is there a way to set it statically? The server is working fine without allowing it in my firewall/forwarding in the router, but I'm still curious. Since it's always a different one, it's hard to look for existing posts on this forum about it or the internet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
