Technical Details

what runs on :2162

Navisphere uses a proprietary management protocol; IANA lists the service on both TCP and UDP, but there is no broadly standardized public wire format or dependable generic handshake description. A listener is typically an EMC storage processor or related Navisphere management endpoint, while web administration may be provided separately over HTTP or HTTPS. Treat the port as vendor-specific storage-management traffic and verify the device identity before interpreting it as a generic application service.

security overview

This is an administrative storage-management service and should not be exposed directly to the public internet. An exposed listener can disclose array information and may provide management operations subject to the appliance's authentication and software version; legacy deployments should be isolated, restricted by firewall or management VLAN, and upgraded where supported. Traffic should be treated as unencrypted by default unless the particular Navisphere deployment documents otherwise.
