01 Security

Is port 3722 dangerous?

We have no specific security note for port 3722. Its risk depends on the program actually listening on it. General advice for other services services:

  • 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 3722, and is it reachable?

Linux

sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :3722'      # process listening on 3722
sudo lsof -nP -i :3722

macOS

sudo lsof -nP -i :3722

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 3722 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess
Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 3722
netstat -ano | findstr :3722

From another machine

nmap -p 3722 -sV <host>
sudo nmap -sU -p 3722 <host>
nc -zv <host> 3722

Block it in the firewall

sudo ufw deny 3722/tcp                                         # Linux (ufw)
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 3722" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 3722 -Protocol TCP -Action Block  # Windows
04 FAQ
What is port 3722 used for?

Port 3722 is assigned by IANA to xserveraid (Xserve RAID).

Is port 3722 TCP or UDP?

Port 3722 is registered for TCP and UDP.

Is it safe to open port 3722?

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 3722 is open?

On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :3722'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :3722", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :3722" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 3722 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
