| The test continues by scanning a fixed set of commonly used '''UDP [[IPv6_Ports]]'''. The IPv6 UDP port test sets its' socket tx/rx timeouts to be 2 seconds - consequently the results can take up to 2s per tested UDP port - although the actual time depends heavily upon the filtering that your system employs (e.g. firewalls which mark protected ports as 'unreachable' will resolve in much less than the allowed 2 second timeout assuming that your firewall sends the appropriate ICMPv6 packet in response). | | The test continues by scanning a fixed set of commonly used '''UDP [[IPv6_Ports]]'''.

| The tester will indicate the status of the tested UDP and TCP ports as either OPEN, STEALTHed or one of a series of other states depending on the positive or negative feedback received from your machine. A typical result is shown in the figures below. Note that if you run the test using an interactive gui-based browser then hovering over specific port numbers produces a pop-up describing the service run on that specific port. For a more detailed explanation of the reported states please read '''[[ScanStatus]]'''. | | The tester will indicate the status of the tested UDP and TCP ports as either OPEN, STEALTHed or one of a series of other states depending on the positive or negative feedback received from your machine.
