  • 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 31949, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :31949'      # process listening on 31949
sudo lsof -nP -i :31949

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :31949

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 31949 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 31949
netstat -ano | findstr :31949

From another machine

nmap -p 31949 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 31949 <host>
nc -zv <host> 31949

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 31949/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)

04 FAQ
What is port 31949 used for?

Port 31949 is assigned by IANA to iceedcp_rx (Embedded Device Configuration Protocol RX), iceedcp-rx (Embedded Device Configuration Protocol RX IANA assigned this well-formed service name as a replacement for "iceedcp_rx".).

Is port 31949 TCP or UDP?

Port 31949 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 31949?

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 31949 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :31949'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :31949", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :31949" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 31949 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
