What is Port 2195?
Port 2195 was the original port used by Apple Push Notification service (APNs) for sending notifications to iOS and macOS devices. App servers connected to Apple's APNs gateway on this port using TLS. Apple has migrated to HTTP/2 over port 443 for APNs, but this port may still appear in older integrations.
