Not sure that I know _all_ of the ramifications, but I suspect
probably both would be appropriate. First to list the port
as being open, the second to list it as a VPN endpoint
in case any other scripts want to have a quick list
of any known VPN end points for testing subsequent
issues.

I'm not aware of any restrictions or impact on calling
either of these functions during the ACT_SCANNER phase
of a scan.
