Juergen Hoffmann commented on LOG4J2-906:
-----------------------------------------

AFAIK: 

The SocketAppender tries to connect to an open port (that another app has 
opened) and writes data.
If the port is not open / is not a listener port, then the SocketAppender 
cannot connect and does not start.

The TelnetAppender just opens the port itself and writes data.
Another telnet client can connect to that port and can view the data.
