# WHATPORT(2160)

## NAME

port 2160 — APC PowerChute (legacy) — One of three ports IANA hands to APC with no protocol description, and no public document says what ran on it.

Protocol: TCP  
IANA: apc-2160

## DESCRIPTION

IANA registers 2160 to American Power Conversion (now Schneider Electric) as literally "APC 2160", the same non-description given to 2161 and 2260. No public specification or vendor document describes what any of the three carried. Schneider's current port documentation lists TCP 6547 for the PowerChute agent web UI and UDP 161 for its SNMP agent, and says nothing about 2160, so a listener here points at an old PowerChute install rather than anything shipping today.

## EXPOSURE

**Do not expose.** An APC-registered port with no published protocol, most plausibly legacy UPS management software — anything near the machinery that shuts servers down belongs on a management network.

## CHECK

```sh
nc -vz TARGET 2160
```
