title: About the port Resource

# port
Use the `port` InSpec audit resource to test basic port properties, such as port, process, if it's listening.
<br>
## Syntax
A `port` resource block declares a port, and then depending on what needs to be tested, a process, protocol, process identifier, and its state (is it listening?):
describe port(514) do
it { should be_listening }
its('processes') {should include 'syslog'}
end
where the `processes` returns the processes listening on port 514.
A filter may specify an attribute:
describe port.where { protocol =~ /tcp/ && port > 22 && port < 80 } do
it { should_not be_listening }
end
where
* `.where{}` specifies a block in which one (or more) attributes---`port`, `address`, `protocol`, `process`, `pid`, or `listening?`----scope the test to ports that match those attributes
For example, to test if the SSH daemon is available on a Linux machine via the default port (22):
describe port(22) do
its('processes') { should include 'sshd' }
its('protocols') { should include 'tcp' }
its('addresses') { should include '0.0.0.0' }
end
<br>
## Examples
The following examples show how to use this InSpec audit resource.
### Test port 80, listening with the TCP protocol
describe port(80) do
it { should be_listening }
its('protocols') { should cmp 'tcp' }
end
### Test port 80, on a specific address
A specific port address may be checked using either of the following examples:
describe port(80) do
it { should be_listening }
its('addresses') {should include '0.0.0.0'}
end
or:
describe port('0.0.0.0', 80) do
it { should be_listening }
end
### Test port 80, listening with TCP version IPv6 protocol
describe port(80) do
it { should be_listening }
its('protocols') { should cmp 'tcp6' }
end
### Test that only secure ports accept requests
describe port(80) do
it { should_not be_listening }
end
describe port(443) do
it { should be_listening }
its('protocols') { should cmp 'tcp' }
end
### Verify port 65432 is not listening
describe port(22) do
it { should be_listening }
its('protocols') { should include('tcp') }
its('protocols') { should_not include('udp') }
end
describe port(65432) do
it { should_not be_listening }
end
<br>
## Matchers
For a full list of available matchers, please visit our [matchers page](https://www.inspec.io/docs/reference/matchers/).
### address
The `addresses` matcher tests if the specified address is associated with a port:
its('addresses') { should include '0.0.0.0' }
### be_listening
The `be_listening` matcher tests if the port is listening for traffic:
it { should be_listening }
### pids
The `pids` matcher tests the process identifiers (PIDs):
its('pids') { should cmp 27808 }
### processes
The `processes` matcher tests if the named process is running on the system:
its('processes') { should cmp 'syslog' }
### protocols
The `protocols` matcher tests the Internet protocol: ICMP (`'icmp'`), TCP (`'tcp'` or `'tcp6'`), or UDP (`'udp'` or `'udp6'`):
its('protocols') { should include 'tcp' }
or for the IPv6 protocol:
its('protocols') { should include 'tcp6' }
