Thanks all. Richards iptables suggestion did the trick (with the IP

It was TCP. It was done in order to lock out the WAS admin console and

A worthwhile check, with a twist I learned only recently, is to do a
port scan with nmap.
For ages I've been saying,
nmap -O ....
The twist is
nmap -sV ....
See the difference?
