- Close the port if nothing on the host needs it.
- Identify the process that listens on it (commands below) before opening it in a firewall.
- Expose a service only to the networks that use it.

Which program uses port 4360, and is it reachable?
Linux
sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :4360' # process listening on 4360
sudo lsof -nP -i :4360macOS
sudo lsof -nP -i :4360
Windows (PowerShell)
Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 4360 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 4360 netstat -ano | findstr :4360
From another machine
nmap -p 4360 -sV <host> nc -zv <host> 4360
Block it in the firewall

What is port 4360 used for?
Port 4360 is assigned by IANA to matrix_vnet (Matrix VNet Communication Protocol), matrix-vnet (Matrix VNet Communication Protocol IANA assigned this well-formed service name as a replacement for "matrix_vnet".).
Is port 4360 TCP or UDP?
Port 4360 is registered for TCP.
Is it safe to open port 4360?
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. Close the port if nothing on the host needs it.
How do I check if port 4360 is open?
On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :4360'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :4360", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :4360" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 4360 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
