- Answer only the networks that need the service (no open resolvers, relays or reflectors).
- UDP services can be abused for DDoS amplification: rate-limit or block them at the edge.
- Disable legacy test services that have no use in production.

What is port 11108 used for?
Port 11108 is assigned by IANA to myq-termlink (Hardware Terminals Discovery and Low-Level Communication Protocol).
Is port 11108 TCP or UDP?
Port 11108 is registered for UDP.
Is it safe to open port 11108?
It depends on the program that listens on it. Open it only for a service you know and only to the networks that need it. Answer only the networks that need the service (no open resolvers, relays or reflectors).
How do I check if port 11108 is open?
On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :11108'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :11108", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :11108" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 11108 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
