Is this the *local* host listening on that port, or some remote system?

If it's the local host, then you would want to use a fact that calls
something like netstat or ss and returns a Boolean based on the result of
that port selection. You could also return all listening ports as a Hash
and go from there.

Generally, Puppet would be managing the service that actually listens on
the port and you would simply include your manifest after starting that
service. However, without knowing your setup, it's difficult to tell if you
are in this situation.

Thanks,

Trevor
