# WHATPORT(2144)

## NAME

port 2144 — LiveVault Fast Object Transfer — Registered to LiveVault's online-backup agent; effectively extinct in the wild.

Protocol: TCP  
IANA: lv-ffx

## DESCRIPTION

IANA registers 2144 as lv-ffx, "Live Vault Fast Object Transfer", with the neighbouring 2145 (lv-pici) registered for LiveVault's remote diagnostic console. LiveVault sold a hosted continuous-backup service whose Windows agents pushed changed data to its data centres; the company was acquired by Iron Mountain and the product line is long gone. No current software defaults to this port, so anything listening here today is almost certainly an unrelated program that grabbed a free high port. Treat the registered name as a label, not as identification.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** Nothing supported should be listening here — identify the actual process before deciding anything, and do not trust the IANA name to tell you what it is.

## CHECK

```sh
sudo lsof -nP -iTCP:2144 -sTCP:LISTEN
```
