TCP Port Ping Windows 10 / Windows 11 | 07-Feb-2025 |
PortCheck is a command line tool for Windows 11. It allows you to perform "TCP Pings" to remote machines. TCP Ping is actually not a correct term, as Ping is a fixed term for sending and receiving ICMP packets. PortCheck is able to check if a TCP port of a remote host answers to a TCP request or not. This allows you to check whether a server is still providing a particular service. PortCheck is a small portable tool with a size of only 166 K. It has many additional features like checking multiple hosts on multiple ports.
TCP Ping to a remote host. Option -st displays
date and time (timestamp). You can also log the output to a logfile.
The syntax:
PortCheck [-t] [-i] <hostname(s)> <port(s)>
Examples:
PortCheck MyServer 80 # single check
PortCheck -t MyServer 443
# continuous
Also possible:
PortCheck -t SRV-EXCH1,SRV-DB1 443
# multiple hosts, one TCP portPortCheck -t SRV-EXCH1 25,443
# single host, multiple TCP portsPortCheck -t SRV-EXCH1,SRV-DB1 443,1521
# multiple hosts, multiple portsPortCheck -t -st Fileserver1 445
# check TCP port 445 (SMB) with timestamp (-st)PortCheck -t -bp SRV-SQL1 1433
# check TCP port 1433 (MS SQL) of SRV-SQL1 with beep in case of failuresPortCheck -t -st Terminal-Server1 445 1000 c:\temp\Port445.txt
# log to filePortCheck Oracle-Server1 knownports
# check a list of "known ports" (about 1000)PortCheck -i # interactive mode, values are requested by user
If you are looking for a graphical TCP ping tool instead of a command line tool, you can have a look at Ping Tool 4.3. PingTool is a utility for system administrators and network admins. It displays the availibility and the TCP Ping response time of remote hosts in a GUI:
