Hi All,
Is there some special meaning (like 127.0.0.1.) to
the following IP address?
224.0.0.251
Many thanks,
-T
It is an IP Multicast address.
host 224.0.0.251
will tell you a bit more.
Alan.
Hi Alan,
$ host 224.0.0.251
Host 251.0.0.224.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
Not sure what I am suppose to find.
This is why I ask (VLC's doing):
kernel: Vlan-out Everything Else IN= OUT=eth0.5 SRC=192.168.254.10
DST=224.0.0.251 LEN=56 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=255 ID=0 DF PROTO=UDP
SPT=5353
DPT=5353 LEN=36
eth0.5 is a virtual Ethernet too, not hooked to the Internet.
And port 3535 UDP?
$ grep -i 3535 /etc/services
ms-la 3535/tcp # MS-LA
ms-la 3535/udp # MS-LA
Thank you for the help,
-T
Lysdexic are we? It's 5353 which seems to be an alternate DNS address.

Seems I have already look at 5353 once before. From
one of my penetration reports:
Port 5353/udp (zeroconf) is registered to the Link
Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) service.
It is part of how Windows computers identify themselves
to each other on a local area network and is part of
the normal operation of the Windows XP Operating System.
Further information can be found at:
