Thiago,
 
    264 is  used for the BGMP
    Description:
        Protocol suite:
Type:
Application layer protocol.
Port:
264 (TCP).
 
bgmp, Border Gateway Multicast Protocol.
 
    265 is   X-Bone CTL
    The X-Bone is a system for the automated deployment, management, coodination, and monitoring of IP overlay networks.  Its core is composed of Overlay Managers (OM) which deploy and coordinate the overlay itself, and Resource Daemons (RD), which coordinate the resources of individual network components. It also includes support for a graphical user interface (GUI) and a more direct API (shown in the figure below).
 
 
The GUI/API requests the overlay, and monitors its progress. The OM advertizes an invitation to create a new overlay, then configures the components, and monitors the result. The Resource Daemon coordinates resource use on the individual components, and translates generic configuration into machine-specific form.
 
TCP/SSL is used for secure configuration to take advantage of TCP's reliable channel, and reduce the number of different security schemes required in X-Bone [14]. X-Bone uses a web-based GUI for user request of an overlay deployment. Web browsers already support SSL, so the user's request is secure on the path to the OM. For simplicity, we use the same mechanism between the OMs and RDs. Alternate schemes, such as PGP, would require multiple mechanisms within the OM, and different protocols between different pairs of components.
 
This architecture utilizes a single, well-known multicast channel for invitation announcements, and separate reliable channels for configuration and monitoring. It is based on the multicast announcements in M-Bone teleconferencing; in fact, X-Bone effects an overlay as if it were a teleconference among its OM and the RDs of its router and host components.

I performed a portscan on my firewall. Its listening
on ports 264 and 265. What are they for?
