List All Open Ports in Linux

You can use the netstat command or ss utility, to list all open ports on a Linux system. In addition, the netstat command has been deprecated, and instead, ss command has taken its place in showing more detailed network statistics.

sudo netstat -tulpn  sudo ss -tulpn

 

The output will show by the state column whether a port is in a listening state (LISTEN) or not.

 

And in the above command, the flag:

-t – enables listing of TCP ports.

-u – enables listing of UDP ports.

-l – prints only listening sockets.

-n – shows the port number.

-p – show process/program name.
