Overview

Whether you are deploying a web server, configuring a firewall, or troubleshooting connectivity, knowing which ports are open is essential. The Port Checker tests TCP connectivity to any port on any server, giving you instant confirmation of whether a port is accepting connections.

Enter a hostname or IP address and a port number to check. The tool attempts a TCP connection and reports whether the port is open, closed, or filtered by a firewall. You can test common service ports like 80 (HTTP), 443 (HTTPS), 22 (SSH), and 3306 (MySQL), or check any custom port up to 65535.

For comprehensive security audits, use the range scan feature to test multiple ports at once. Scan common port ranges or specify a custom range to discover all open ports on a server. The results show which services are likely running based on standard port assignments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between closed and filtered?
A closed port responds with a rejection, meaning the server is reachable but no service is listening. A filtered port gives no response, typically meaning a firewall is silently dropping the connection.
Can I check ports on my own computer?
This tool checks ports from our external servers. To check your own computer, use it with your public IP address. Note that your router or ISP may block incoming connections.
How many ports can I scan at once?
Free users can scan up to 20 ports per request. Pro subscribers can scan ranges up to 1000 ports.
Is port scanning legal?
Scanning your own servers is always legal. Scanning servers you do not own without permission may violate terms of service or laws in some jurisdictions. Only scan systems you are authorized to test.
