I have run the following command using ss.
# ss -ua | grep radius
UNCONN 0 0 :::radius :::*
My question is, what interface/IP does :::radius
corespond with? What Interface does :::*
correspond with and where is its source port information for that matter? What do the asterisks mean in the output of ss? Do they mean the same as 0.0.0.0?
