TCP 6006

ProtocolTCP
Port6006
LabelsX11—used between an X client and server over the network

Synopsis

  • TensorBoard (part of TensorFlow) listens on TCP port 6006 by default for its web UI; PyTorch users via tensorboard and NVIDIA’s DLProf/TF Profiler plugins also commonly expose their dashboards on 6006.
  • The X Window System (X11) uses TCP ports 6000–6063; an X server on display :6 listens on TCP 6006, used on Unix/Linux systems for remote GUI connections.
  • Exposed X11 servers on ports 6000–6063 (including 6006) have been widely abused: attackers can capture keystrokes/screens or control windows when authentication is weak or disabled.
