HP Insight Manager Web
Port 2381 is the default port used by HP Insight Manager's embedded web server interface. This management tool allows administrators to remotely monitor, control, and maintain Hewlett-Packard servers and hardware. Access via an HTTP-based browser interface simplifies system management and offers visibility into hardware status, configuration, and alerts..
HP Insight Manager was a widely-used server management platform provided by Hewlett-Packard for their ProLiant and BladeSystem servers. It offered a web-based interface accessible over port 2381, enabling IT administrators to perform tasks such as hardware monitoring, firmware updates, and system alerts through a centralized dashboard.
When connecting to port 2381, administrators interact with the embedded HP Management Agents or HP System Management Homepage (SMH). These components communicate directly with server hardware, reporting metrics like CPU temperature, memory status, storage health, and fan speeds. The data is typically presented in a user-friendly web interface, improving operational visibility and streamlining diagnostics.
Port 2381 traditionally uses HTTP, but can be configured to use HTTPS for encrypted management sessions. However, the default service configuration might run on unencrypted HTTP, which could potentially expose sensitive system details over the network unless properly secured. The service primarily relies on TCP connections and does not utilize SCTP.
