Which program uses port 2290, and is it reachable?
Linux
sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :2290' # process listening on 2290
sudo lsof -nP -i :2290macOS
sudo lsof -nP -i :2290
Windows (PowerShell)
Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 2290 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 2290 netstat -ano | findstr :2290
From another machine
nmap -p 2290 -sV <host> sudo nmap -sU -p 2290 <host> nc -zv <host> 2290
Block it in the firewall

Is port 2290 TCP or UDP?
Port 2290 is registered for TCP and UDP.
Is it safe to open port 2290?
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. Restrict management and monitoring protocols to the monitoring network.
How do I check if port 2290 is open?
On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :2290'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :2290", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :2290" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 2290 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
