Problems with the 3977 Port: permanently open!

Hi everybody!
I am new on the forum and I have a question. I recently noticed that while using OpenVPN the port number 3977, which I am usually connecting to, always looks like “open”. This has happened with the Black Hole 179 version. I personally find this awkward. Does someone know why this happens?
The conclusion to which I came is that perhaps I can always change the port number as I please, but it’s just a pure guess and maybe I am wrong. I’d really be interested in knowing why everytime I launch the program I most likely end up with the port already opened. Has maybe someone experienced something similar as well?
I hope my explanation was sufficiently clear. Happy to provide further details whether necessary. Many thanks in advance (and Merry Xmas of course)!

If you use OpenVPN with the 3977 port it's normal that is open for connections.
