Cannot connect to background rest server using port 5000 on hyper-v windows guest

Question

I have a hyper-v windows 7 guest. I also have a Rest server listening to port 5000 on this guest.
From the windows 10 host I can ping this VM. And I can ping the host from this VM.
I have added a rule to the firewall on this VM.
I'm using nmap to see if port 5000 is open on the VM, but I keep getting the status "filtered".
I cannot get port 5000 to open on this VM.
Any idea why the port 5000 cannot be opened on this VM?

Answer 3

Assuming you're asking about this one?
TCP 127.0.0.1:5000 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 2324

When it says 127.0.0.1 on the Local Address column it means that port is ONLY listening for connections from your PC itself, not from the Internet or network

Answer 4

Altered the Rest Server settings. Now the netstat is showing;
TCP 0.0.0.0:5000 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 3348

Port 5000 seems to be open now and I can get to my data.

Thanks all for your help.
