    Hey hey! The ":" represents IPv6 addresses.

    The other one is IPv6 address, so they are the same. > please: what means "LISTEN" (in red) ?? grep shows in red what you are searching for.

    I'm not sure how the firewall configuration is related to the question. The one server you tested just likely has the IPv6 address show up first when checking "ifconfig" which is why netstat checked that first.

    "0.0.0.0:port" means that it's listening in port "port" in all IPv4 addresses in the server, ":::port" means that it's listening in port "port" in all IPv6 addresses in the server.

    thanks master when we open /etc/csf/csf.conf (in both: serverA and serverB) not exist string "10000" then logically the config of this port not is doit from /etc/csf/csf.conf please: how we can convert ":::*" to "0.0.0.0:port" convert "0.0.0.0:port" to ":::*"

    You must open the port in TCP_IN & TCP6_IN.
    please: how we can convert ":::*" to "0.0.0.0:port" convert "0.0.0.0:port" to ":::*"
    ???

    That is configured in that service's configuration. Usually a service is listening in both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses (if IPv6 in enabled in the server).

    I'm still not sure where the "10000" is coming from - can you let me know where you're seeing the number 10000 and where you are expecting that to be?
