Is port 2552 dangerous?
We have no specific security note for port 2552. Its risk depends on the program actually listening on it. General advice for monitoring & logging services:

Which program uses port 2552, and is it reachable?
Linux
sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :2552' # process listening on 2552
sudo lsof -nP -i :2552macOS
sudo lsof -nP -i :2552
Windows (PowerShell)
Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 2552 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 2552 netstat -ano | findstr :2552
From another machine
nmap -p 2552 -sV <host> sudo nmap -sU -p 2552 <host> nc -zv <host> 2552
Block it in the firewall
sudo ufw deny 2552/tcp # Linux (ufw) New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Block 2552" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 2552 -Protocol TCP -Action Block # Windows
What is port 2552 used for?
Port 2552 is assigned by IANA to call-logging (Call Logging).
Is port 2552 TCP or UDP?
Port 2552 is registered for TCP and UDP.
Is it safe to open port 2552?
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 2552 is open?
On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :2552'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :2552", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :2552" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 2552 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
