This single IPv4 address is reserved as an anycast address for Port Control Protocol (PCP), which lets clients manage mappings and firewall state in compatible devices.

IANA marks this address globally reachable for its standards-defined service role. That does not guarantee that a route or PCP service is available from every network.

A system administrator should treat the address as protocol infrastructure, not as an end-user host.

Firewall tip: allow it only where PCP is expected. Otherwise classify it as special infrastructure traffic.
