The Port Number, Request, and Response parameters can provide various types of information depending upon the entered values.

If, for example, you only need to know whether you can connect to a specified port, enter that port number.

Port Number <25> (for SMTP)

Request <No Value>

Response <No Value>

If, however, you need to know whether you can connect to a specified port and that the server should respond with a certain pattern, then enter a port number and response string.

Port Number <25>

Request <No Value>

Response <*sendmail*>

Finally, you can enter values for all three parameters to send a request to induce the server to respond with a particular pattern.

Port Number <80> (for a Web Server) Request <GET HTTP/1.0\n\n>

Response <*Server: Apache*> (to detect an Apache Web Server)
