  • Close the port if nothing on the host needs it.
  • Identify the process that listens on it (commands below) before opening it in a firewall.
  • Expose a service only to the networks that use it.

03 Check it

Which program uses port 21590, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :21590'      # process listening on 21590
sudo lsof -nP -i :21590

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :21590

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 21590 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 21590
netstat -ano | findstr :21590

From another machine

nmap -p 21590 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 21590 <host>
nc -zv <host> 21590

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 21590/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

Is port 21590 TCP or UDP?

Port 21590 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 21590?

It depends on the program that listens on it. Open it only for a service you know and only to the networks that need it. Close the port if nothing on the host needs it.

How do I check if port 21590 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :21590'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :21590", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :21590" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 21590 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
