Technical Details

what runs on :6714

An IBP depot provides remotely accessible storage operations, including allocation, storing, loading, and management. Capabilities returned by the depot authorize later operations, with separate permissions for reading, writing, and management. IANA lists both TCP and UDP for port 6714; practical IBP depot use is primarily associated with TCP. Do not assume a UDP listener or a particular framing behavior without identifying the implementation.

udp is connectionless — source addresses are trivially spoofed and it is a reflection favourite

security overview

A reachable depot can consume storage and network resources, and access depends on possession of its capabilities; treat those tokens as credentials. IBP traffic is not encrypted by default, so exposed capabilities and data may be at risk on untrusted paths. Restrict access to intended clients, enforce quotas, and protect traffic with a trusted network or external encryption where needed.

Record

iana registry entry

port: :6714
service: Internet Backplane Protocol
transport: TCPUDP
encryption: cleartext
assignment: iana registered
risk: 2/10safe
category: Network Services
usage: IBP is a network-storage protocol: clients use a depot to allocate space and store or retrieve data, often as part of logistical networking systems. The IANA assignment is registered to Alessandro Bassi; the service is uncommon and was not observed open in the cited nmap scan data.
