Technical Details

what runs on :4700

The NetXMS agent uses the binary NXCP protocol, normally over TCP port 4700, with framed request and response messages between the management server and endpoint agent. Sessions negotiate authentication and protocol capabilities, and normal deployments use the protocol's encryption support; configuration can affect encryption and access controls. UDP 4700 is assigned to the service as well, primarily for agent discovery or related datagrams rather than the usual persistent management session.

security overview

This is a management interface and should normally be reachable only from authorized NetXMS servers or through a VPN or management network. An exposed agent can be fingerprinted and, if authentication or an agent vulnerability is bypassed, may disclose host information or enable management actions such as command execution and data collection.
