Technical Details

what runs on :7088

This is Zixi’s proprietary live-video transport over UDP, rather than a general-purpose application protocol. Zixi is designed for live contribution and distribution over variable networks and uses mechanisms such as retransmission and forward error correction to mitigate packet loss. The port assignment identifies the transport, but specific session setup and configuration depend on the Zixi endpoints; do not assume other Zixi ports or defaults from this assignment alone.

worth attention. how exposed you are depends on configuration — don't leave it reachable from the internet without a reason.

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

security overview

Expose UDP 7088 only where an expected Zixi sender or receiver needs to reach it, and restrict peers with network controls. Zixi supports security features including encryption, but encryption is configurable rather than something to assume from seeing this port; confirm the endpoint’s configuration and protect any associated management interfaces separately.
