TCP Port Checker

Test TCP connectivity to one or more host:port combinations. Attempts direct TCP connections to check if ports are open and measures connection latency.

Common Ports

Understanding TCP Port Connectivity

Port States

  • Open: Port accepts connections and responds
  • Closed: Port actively refuses connections
  • Filtered: Port blocked by firewall (appears as timeout)
  • Timeout: No response within timeout period

Common Ports

  • SSH (22): Secure remote access
  • HTTP (80): Web traffic
  • HTTPS (443): Secure web traffic
  • SMTP (25/587): Email sending

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Timeouts often indicate firewall blocking
  • Connection refused means service is not running
  • Check both client and server firewalls
  • Verify service is listening on expected port
