Harmless to PG, yes.  They might indicate something worthy of
investigation though ... like someone portscanning your server.
Or just a broken client.  Anyway it appears something is connecting
to your port 5432 and then disconnecting right away.

Yep ,
We do connect to 5432 to see if pg is up every min
and disconnect. it is not a db connection but a simple
opening / closing of TCP/IP socket for port 5432.

that is the cheapest port monitoring i could think of
