Port 7574 COHERENCE-DISC

Quick answer

Port 7574 has a different IANA assignment for each transport protocol: TCP coherence; UDP coherence-disc.

What is port 7574 used for?

Port 7574 carries a different IANA service on each transport protocol: TCP coherence; UDP coherence-disc. It sits in the registered range, the block used by databases, application servers and developer tooling. Port conflicts here are common when several local services start at once. The same port is also registered under coherence.

Each transport reaches a different service on this number, so match the protocol to the service you are diagnosing. A TCP check says nothing about a UDP listener on the same port, and the reverse is also true. Both transports still bind to the same number, which is why two processes can collide even when they use different protocols.

Use the commands below to confirm whether port 7574 is actually in use before you change firewall rules. Blocking the port stops new inbound traffic at the firewall, but it does not stop a local process from listening, and it does not remove the service from the machine.

Check and block port 7574

Copy-ready commands for the protocols assigned to this port. Run the check first, then block only what should not be reachable.

Check on Linux

sudo ss -tlpn 'sport = :7574' sudo ss -ulpn 'sport = :7574'

Check on Windows

Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 7574 -State Listen -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 7574 -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

Block with UFW

sudo ufw deny 7574/tcp sudo ufw deny 7574/udp

Block with iptables

sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7574 -j DROP sudo iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 7574 -j DROP

These commands are examples for a typical host. Check the listener before you change firewall rules, and persist iptables rules with iptables-save or netfilter-persistent. On Windows, use Windows Defender Firewall or New-NetFirewallRule for persistent blocks. The iptables rules here cover IPv4; mirror them with ip6tables if IPv6 is enabled.

Is port 7574 safe to expose?

Standard/Low

This port is not on our curated list of services with a widely exploited profile. Exposure is only safe when the listening service is intended, patched and protected by a firewall. Keep the listening service patched and remove it if unused. A default-deny firewall policy with explicit allow rules is still the safest baseline.

Where port 7574 is usually used

Most traffic on port 7574 falls into these scenarios. The demo below is a safe way to confirm the listener before you change anything.

Demo

Open a test connection

Probe the TCP listener before you debug credentials or driver settings.

nc -vz 127.0.0.1 7574

Common problems with port 7574

Connection refused or timed out

Refused usually means the host is reachable but nothing is listening on port 7574. A timeout more often means a firewall drop, a wrong host or a service bound to a different interface.

Port already in use

Find the process holding the port with sudo ss -tlpn 'sport = :7574' or sudo lsof -i :7574. Stop that process or configure it to bind another port; killing it without identifying it can take down a production service.

Firewall rule did not survive a reboot

UFW and Windows Firewall keep rules across restarts. Raw iptables rules do not: save them with iptables-save or the netfilter-persistent package, and re-apply after upgrades that reset the ruleset.

The port is blocked but still reachable

A firewall rule filters inbound traffic; it does not close the listener. Confirm with the check command above and bind the service to 127.0.0.1 when only local clients need it.

Frequently asked questions

What is port 7574 used for?

Port 7574 (COHERENCE-DISC). The IANA registry assigns a different service on each transport protocol: TCP coherence; UDP coherence-disc.

How do I check if port 7574 is open?

On Linux run `sudo ss -tlpn 'sport = :7574'` and `sudo ss -ulpn 'sport = :7574'`. On Windows run `Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 7574 -State Listen -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue` and `Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 7574 -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue` in PowerShell. If the port is open, the output shows a process listening on port 7574; empty output usually means nothing is bound to it.

How do I block port 7574?

With UFW run `sudo ufw deny 7574/tcp` and `sudo ufw deny 7574/udp`. With iptables run `sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 7574 -j DROP` and `sudo iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 7574 -j DROP`. Persist the iptables rules with your distribution's netfilter-persistent or iptables-save tooling so they survive a reboot.

Is port 7574 safe to expose?

This port is not on our curated list of services with a widely exploited profile. Exposure is only safe when the listening service is intended, patched and protected by a firewall. Nevertheless, keep the listening service patched and remove it if unused. A default-deny firewall policy with explicit allow rules is still the safest baseline.
