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?
