Nmap open port

L0 Member

I find myself confused regarding the following case: when running a scan with nmap on an IP address that was previously on my access list, nmap indicates that the ports are still open.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Nmap>.\nmap.exe xxx.xxx.xxx.xx -p 22,3389,5900,1433,3306,21,110,143,23,6667,1025,548,143,23,667,1025,548,445,139,135,1026

6667/tcp open irc

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 2.92 seconds

Despite having removed the object and all applicable policies, the result still shows that the ports are open.

When I check the traffic, I see that all connection attempts are rejected, as the policies I have set for access control are as follows:

Is there any solution to this problem?

 

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi @dc93ra ,

 

When you run nmap from your host to the target server, does that traffic go through the firewall? Can you verify that the fiirewall is in fact in-line with the nmap to destination server? Without knowing much of your environment, could it be that you are running nmap directly to the server without traversing the firewall? I would check the target server to see if it is listening on the ports that is shown through nmap.
