Remote IP Communication on 232.0.1.10

[Pramod Unni]

Dear All,

We have the HP Rapid Deployment Pack & Virtual connect manager installed on the managements along with HP SIM & Remote Suport Advanced apps.Which is our EVA Command View storage configuration/application sever as well.

We have noticed a communication from the management server to the remote public IP 232.0.1.10 on UDP ports 9000,13410,8224.

Can someone through light and let me know in case it's used by any HP application components.

Regards,
Pramod.

232.0.0.0 is part of the reserved Multicast IP range
(see http://www.iana.org/assignments/multicast-addresses/multicast-addresses.xml)

So I would not expect this to be extending outside of your network. As you mention RDP is installed I'd expect that it is probably something to do with the Altiris components of RDP.

This looks quite similar but I do not see how replacing a patch cable can stop this kind of specific multicasting.. But maybe 5) in the advisory above would work for you.

The 232.0.0.0/8 is a "class D" or reserved for multicasting.

Is this used by SNMP maybe?
