It carries the servm daemon's traffic within a BoKS domain, so it appears only alongside 6500 and its siblings on managed Unix hosts. As with the rest of the block the base port is configurable, so a BoKS deployment can sit somewhere else entirely and something unrelated can occupy 6502 instead — check the process, not just the number.",
