UDP 7070

ProtocolUDP
Port7070
LabelsReal Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) used by QuickTime Streaming Server. TCP is used by default

Synopsis

  • RealNetworks RealServer/Helix (aka Helix Universal Server) and RealPlayer used UDP ports 6970–7170 for media transport (RDT/RTP), so UDP 7070 is one of the default media ports commonly seen during RealMedia streaming.
  • Many legacy streaming deployments (e.g., Helix DNA Server used by broadcasters and universities) generated UDP 7070 traffic as part of this default media port range.
  • Security note: the RealServer service on port 7070 has historically been targeted by attackers (notably via the rtspd service on TCP 7070), so this port is often scanned in the wild.
