Is port 2552 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 2552. Its risk depends on the program actually listening on it. General advice for monitoring & logging services:

  • Restrict management and monitoring protocols to the monitoring network.
  • Replace community strings and default credentials.
  • Send logs over TLS.

03 Check it

Which program uses port 2552, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :2552'      # process listening on 2552
sudo lsof -nP -i :2552

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :2552

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 2552 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 2552
netstat -ano | findstr :2552

From another machine

nmap -p 2552 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 2552 <host>
nc -zv <host> 2552

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 2552/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

04 FAQ
What is port 2552 used for?

Port 2552 is assigned by IANA to call-logging (Call Logging).

Is port 2552 TCP or UDP?

Port 2552 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 2552?

It depends on the program that listens on it. Open it only for a service you know and only to the networks that need it. Restrict management and monitoring protocols to the monitoring network.

How do I check if port 2552 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :2552'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :2552", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :2552" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 2552 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
