I don't think the issue is it normal but rather is it appropriate. This port
is also commonly associated with Oracle. You should identify the true
service running there and then whether or not it is appropriate for the
business. If it is appropriate you should identify any risks associated with
the service.

Subject: Open tcp port 2005 on cisco router



        Hi All,

        While I am scanning one of our customer's border router, I have seen
that TCP port 2005 is open and reachable from Internet. As far as, I know
this port is being used for async. connection to other devices in this
router. Is that normal to see this port as open from Internet?

        BR
