When I do a port scan, IPCOP shows port 113 is closed. How do I make port 113 unreplied?

Some older websites/programs use port 113 (Ident) to check if a remote computer exists on the connection. For this reason, IPCOP by default response to port 113 with a closed response. If you want IPCOP not to respond to port 113, do the following:

  • Goto your web interface
  • Goto the External Access page (Firewall – External Access)
  • Remove port 113 from the External Access page
