PortQry reports finding or status on TCP/IP ports in 3 ways:
| ListeningA process is listening on the port on the computer that you selected. Portqry.exe received a response from the port. | |
| • | Not ListeningNo process is listening on the target port on the target system. Portqry.exe received an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) “Destination Unreachable – Port Unreachable” message back from the target UDP port. Or if the target port is a TCP port, Portqry received a TCP acknowledgement packet with the Reset flag set. |
| • | FilteredThe port on the computer that you selected is being filtered. Portqry.exe did not receive a response from the port. A process may or may not be listening on the port. By default, TCP ports are queried three times, and UDP ports are queried one time before a report indicates that the port is filtered. |
