I am attempting to decipher the below output

bash-3.00$ netstat -a

It looks to me like we have the following items

  • UDP
    • IPv4
      • Open ports sunrpc, 32771
      • Question 1: What is *.* Unbound?
  • TCP
    • IPv4
      • Open ports sunrpc, ssh
      • 10 ports open only for localhost
      • The open ssh connection from my PC
      • Question 2: What is *.32785 *.* 0 0 49152 0 BOUND?
      • Question 3: What is *.* *.* 0 0 49152 0 IDLE? (shows up twice)
    • IPv6
      • Open port ssh
      • Question 3: What is *.* *.* 0 0 49152 0 IDLE?
  • Question 4: What is SCTP?
  • Question 5: What is Active UNIX domain sockets
