# WHATPORT(6510)

## NAME

port 6510 — MCER Port — Registered as "MCER Port"; no public documentation and effectively never seen.

Protocol: TCP/UDP  
IANA registry

## DESCRIPTION

IANA registers 6510 TCP and UDP as mcer-port, "MCER Port", assigned to Portnoy Boxman, and Unix /etc/services repeats the entry. No protocol specification, product page, or implementation is publicly available, so the registration is the entire documented record. Scanners naming 6510 "mcer-port" are quoting the registry rather than recognising a service.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** Nothing is known about what would answer here, so no verdict is defensible without identifying the local process first.

## CHECK

```sh
sudo lsof -nP -iTCP:6510 -sTCP:LISTEN
```
