Why use this tool

A port is a virtual endpoint on a server. This tool attempts a TCP connection to a host and port and reports whether it is open, plus the connection latency.

Use it to verify web servers (80/443), mail (25/587), databases (3306/5432) or game servers before you connect from a client.
