Nmap - Linux SNMP Multiplexer, port 199?
I'm getting some weird results on one of my vps while doing an NMAP scan:

Initiating NSE at 10:05
Completed NSE at 10:05, 5.08s elapsed

I don't know what the port 199 and port 3100 are (Linux SNMP Multiplexer), and when doing a netstat -tulpen
on the host I don't see them:

Anybody has some info on the port 199 and 3100 stuff?
Comments
It is running on Vserver, from Edis.at, does that have to do anything with it? @William?
Is snmpd running?
Nope.
Well then, now I'm curious.

Isn't SNMP in the kernel?
It is not enabled on any of my other servers, or on any company servers I manage, the port numbers are also unknown to me...
Maybe it's Edis tracking BW?

@William Maybe you can explain?
Yes, thats normal on VServer - It does not run on the container, it runs on the host.
Thank you for the explanation. What does it do, and what is it used for? Just SNMP?
