714
Summary
- // if you see it open
- XPCS establishes TLS after TCP connection and before protocol blocks; RFC 4992 notes TLS enables authentication and confidentiality. Actual deployment configuration is unknown.
About port 714.
TCP port 714 is assigned by IANA to iris-xpcs, described as “IRIS over XPCS.” RFC 4992 specifies XPCS as IRIS XML Pipelining with Chunks used over TLS. These sources define the assignment and protocol, but do not establish what any particular host runs or whether the port should be publicly reachable.
In the specified exchange, a client opens TCP, then establishes TLS before sending protocol blocks. XPC carries IRIS request and response data in chunks over a connection. The protocol supports authentication mechanisms through SASL, while TLS provides authentication and confidentiality. This describes protocol capabilities, not a guarantee about a specific deployment.
No evidence here measures deployment frequency or associates the port with malware. Treat an observed listener as a service to identify and assess in its network context; the registry entry alone does not establish exposure policy or safety.
