adb-reverse: Remove all reverse socket connections from all emulators and devices.

$ adb reverse --remove-all

try on your machine

The command "adb reverse --remove-all" is used in Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to remove all existing reverse port forwarding setups on an Android device.

When you connect an Android device to your computer using ADB, you can establish a reverse port forwarding setup, which allows you to access services running on the Android device from your computer. This is useful, for example, when you want to test your app's behavior on a real Android device while running the app server on your computer.

The "adb reverse" command is used to set up reverse port forwarding. By using the "--remove-all" option with this command, you can remove all previously established reverse port forwarding configurations on the device.

So, the command "adb reverse --remove-all" is executed on the command-line interface (CLI) to remove all existing reverse port forwarding configurations, freeing up the specified ports for other purposes.
