That is what is strange;  lsof does *not* see the port as listening,
but it is visible if I search by inode [and it is clearly rsyslogd -
but I cannot find any documentation indicating what this is].

The port is closed on the firewall; but I file a report which includes
every listening port and its justification.

NOTE:  rsyslog exhibits this behavior on every CentOS6 & CentOS7 host. 
And all our host log via rsyslogd via UDP/514 to a central NMS with a
syslog receiver.
