03 Check it

Which program uses port 2715, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :2715'      # process listening on 2715
sudo lsof -nP -i :2715

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :2715

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 2715 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 2715
netstat -ano | findstr :2715

From another machine

nmap -p 2715 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 2715 <host>
nc -zv <host> 2715
