PARK AGENT (park-agent)

Registered as PARK AGENT, but when it turns up it is usually a consumer router's own service.

TCP UDP IANA registry

Description

IANA has 5431 registered as park-agent on TCP and UDP, an old entry with no published protocol description. The registered service is effectively extinct. What people do report finding on 5431 is a listener on consumer broadband routers — Broadcom-based Belkin, Linksys, and D-Link gateways — that disappears when UPnP is switched off, which points at the gateway's UPnP IGD control service; no vendor documentation confirms the port, so treat that as a field observation.

Do not expose

If this is your router answering, it is a device control surface — it must not be reachable from the WAN side.
