# WHATPORT(1079)

## NAME

port 1079 — ASPROVATalk — Registered as ASPROVATalk; the protocol was never publicly documented.

Protocol: TCP  
IANA registry

## DESCRIPTION

IANA assigned 1079/tcp and 1079/udp to Chiew Farn Chung under the name asprovatalk, "ASPROVATalk". There is no published specification and no open implementation, so the registration is the entire record. As with most of this stretch of the user-port range, a listener here is more likely to be some other application on a convenient low port.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** Undocumented protocol — identify the process behind the socket before exposing it beyond the host.

## CHECK

```sh
nmap -sV -Pn -p 1079 TARGET
```
