Getting Data In

How do I know open UDP connections on my indexer?

We have several hosts sending data to our indexer on UDP port. Is there a way to list down all the ports on which Splunk is listening?
netstat -l shows UDP ports but few of them are missing in the output.

I can also check in GUI but its disabled on my indexer.
