Solaris Jedi: A quick way to check UDP ports on Solaris

Ever need a quick way to check what UDP connections are active on your Solaris server? I recently had to validate a scanner's report that we had an unnecessary service running on UDP port 177. Unfortunately, Solaris does not yet ship with lsof as a standard tool, so it requires the use of netstat(1M).

NAME
in.echod - UDP or TCP echo protocol service daemon SYNOPSIS
in.echod FMRI svc:/internet/echo:default DESCRIPTION
FMRI stands for Fault Management Resource Identifier. It is used to identify resources managed by the Fault Manager. See fmd(1M) and smf(5). The in.echod service provides the server-side of the echo protocol. This protocol is used for debugging and bandwidth measurement and is available on both TCP and UDP transports, through port 7. The in.echod service is an inetd(1M) smf(5) delegated service. The in.echod detects which transport is requested by examining the socket it is passed by the inetd daemon. TCP-based service Once a connection is established, the in.echod echoes any data received from the client back to the client. The server echoes data until the client program terminates the connection. UDP-based service The in.echod listens for UDP datagrams. When a datagram is received, the server creates a UDP datagram containing the data it received and sends it to the client. ATTRIBUTES
