This does not make any sense. The same instance of Firebird can not
possibly listen to multiple ports at the same time unless you are
doing something down at the OS level to forward one port to another
(which I doubt).

My guess is that your client library is looking at Firebird.conf and
sending the request off to 3051. Maybe use TCPView and check the
Remote Address of the connection from your application.
