# WHATPORT(1036)

## NAME

port 1036 — nsstp (Nebula Secure Segment Transfer Protocol) — Registered to the Nebula Secure Segment Transfer Protocol; no public spec, effectively never seen.

Protocol: TCP/UDP  
IANA registry

## DESCRIPTION

IANA assigns 1036 to `nsstp`, the "Nebula Secure Segment Transfer Protocol", registered to an individual with no registration date recorded and no reference document. There is no published specification and no known open implementation, which makes this one of the emptier entries in the registry. Anything found listening on 1036 in the wild should be assumed to be something else — commonly a low-range dynamic RPC endpoint on pre-Vista Windows.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** Registered but undocumented; there is nothing here to evaluate, so treat an open 1036 as an unknown service.

## CHECK

```sh
sudo lsof -nP -iTCP:1036 -sTCP:LISTEN
```
