Technical Details

what runs on :13400

DoIP is specified by ISO 13400. On UDP 13400, a tester can broadcast vehicle-identification requests, including requests keyed by an entity ID or VIN; a DoIP entity can reply with a vehicle-identification response or send an announcement. Messages use the DoIP generic header (protocol version and inverse version, payload type, and payload length). Discovery is typically local-network traffic and does not itself carry diagnostic commands. DoIP diagnostic communication commonly uses TCP port 13400 after discovery, with routing activation before diagnostic messages are exchanged.

security overview

Discovery traffic is not encrypted by default and can reveal vehicle identifiers such as a VIN to hosts able to observe or query the network. Do not expose this service to the public internet; restrict it to trusted automotive or diagnostic segments. Discovery alone does not provide diagnostic control, but an accessible DoIP TCP service may allow further diagnostic operations depending on gateway policy and authentication.
