About Open Port Checker
The Open Port Checker is a fundamental network diagnostic tool used to determine if a specific communication channel (port) is open and accessible on a server or computer from the internet. Ports are virtual places where network connections start and end. For example, web servers typically listen on port 80 (HTTP) or 443 (HTTPS), while email servers use port 25 (SMTP). If a port is 'Open', it means the server is accepting connections. If it is 'Closed' or 'Filtered', a firewall or network configuration is blocking access. This tool attempts to establish a connection to your specified address and port to verify its status in real-time.
