# WHATPORT(50006)

## NAME

port 50006 — Unassigned (dynamic range) — Unregistered dynamic port with no documented service behind it.

Protocol: TCP  
IANA registry

## DESCRIPTION

50006 has no IANA assignment — the registry does not extend past 49151 — and Nmap's service database has no name for it. It is a plain unassigned high port that shows up when an application, container, or test harness was pointed at a number in the 50000s. Any claim that a specific product owns it would be invention; the correct move is a service-version scan.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** Unknown service, so unknown authentication. Do not expose it until you know what answers and whether it authenticates.

## CHECK

```sh
nmap -Pn -sV -p 50006 TARGET
```
