Technical Details

what runs on :3709

Port 3709 is assigned to CA IDMS Server over both TCP and UDP. In normal deployments, client/server database sessions use TCP to connect to the CA IDMS Server component, which brokers application access to an underlying CA IDMS system using its proprietary protocol; the exact framing and session behavior depend on the product version and client interface. It is not a generic IDMS database listener, and the IANA assignment alone does not establish that UDP is used in a particular deployment.

security overview

This port should generally be restricted to trusted application and administration networks rather than exposed to the Internet. A reachable CA IDMS Server endpoint may provide a path to sensitive enterprise database data if authentication, authorization, or product configuration is weak; traffic should not be assumed to be encrypted by default, so deployments should use the product's supported security controls or an appropriately protected network path.
