hermes

Registered simply as "hermes", with no assignee and no specification.

TCP IANA registry

Description

Port 1248 is listed by IANA on TCP and UDP under the service name hermes, with an empty assignee field and a description that repeats the name. "Hermes" is a name reused by many unrelated projects, so the registration does not identify any particular software. There is no protocol document to read and nothing well-documented that habitually listens here.
