What runs on port 5672

Message broker protocol.

Security considerations

The default guest/guest account only works from localhost, but people disable that. Do not.

Checking whether something is listening

# Linux / macOS — what is bound to the port
sudo lsof -i :5672
sudo ss -lntp | grep :5672

# Windows
netstat -ano | findstr :5672
Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 5672

# is it reachable from outside?
nc -zv example.com 5672
curl -v telnet://example.com:5672

Freeing the port

# find the process, then stop it
sudo lsof -ti :5672 | xargs kill        # Linux / macOS
netstat -ano | findstr :5672            # note the PID, then:
taskkill /PID <pid> /F                    # Windows
