1 209.165.200.5/0 192.168.100.2/2049 100003 0:30:00
2 209.165.200.5/0 192.168.100.2/2049 100003 0:30:00
3 209.165.200.5/0 192.168.100.2/647 100005 0:30:00
4 209.165.200.5/0 192.168.100.2/650 100005 0:30:00
The entry in the LOCAL column shows the IP address of the client or server on the inside interface, while
the value in the FOREIGN column shows the IP address of the client or server on the outside interface.
To view information about the Sun RPC services running on a Sun RPC server, enter the rpcinfo -p
command from the Linux or UNIX server command line. The following is sample output from the
rpcinfo -p command:
sunrpcserver:~ # rpcinfo -p
program vers proto port
100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper
100000 2 udp 111 portmapper
100024 1 udp 632 status
100024 1 tcp 635 status
100003 2 udp 2049 nfs
100003 3 udp 2049 nfs
100003 2 tcp 2049 nfs
100003 3 tcp 2049 nfs
100021 1 udp 32771 nlockmgr
100021 3 udp 32771 nlockmgr
100021 4 udp 32771 nlockmgr
100021 1 tcp 32852 nlockmgr
100021 3 tcp 32852 nlockmgr
100021 4 tcp 32852 nlockmgr
100005 1 udp 647 mountd
100005 1 tcp 650 mountd
100005 2 udp 647 mountd
100005 2 tcp 650 mountd
100005 3 udp 647 mountd
100005 3 tcp 650 mountd
In this output, port 647 corresponds to the mountd daemon running over UDP. The mountd process
would more commonly be using port 32780. The mountd process running over TCP uses port 650 in this
example.
XDMCP Inspection
XDMCP inspection is enabled by default; however, the XDMCP inspection engine is dependent upon
proper configuration of the established command.
XDMCP is a protocol that uses UDP port 177 to negotiate X sessions, which use TCP when established.
For successful negotiation and start of an XWindows session, the ASA must allow the TCP back
connection from the Xhosted computer. To permit the back connection, use the established command
on the ASA. Once XDMCP negotiates the port to send the display, The established command is
consulted to verify if this back connection should be permitted.
During the XWindows session, the manager talks to the display Xserver on the well-known port 6000 |
n. Each display has a separate connection to the Xserver, as a result of the following terminal setting.
setenv DISPLAY Xserver:n
where n is the display number.
