How do you Ping a Port? 
          The Ping Port service   connects to the host designated by the IP Address or DNS host name. It connects to the host on the designated Port via TCP,  similar to the telnet to port capability available on many commad line shells. The Service selector fills in the Request  with appropriate request information depending on the protocol. The Request section can be edited to test various queries. 
          The Ping Port feature may ONLY be used for manual queries  to test connectivity and responsiveness. Any intrusive or abusive usage  will be banned.  |
