How can the ping rdp telnet software help monitoring port?

Hi,

Ping is used to test the reachability of a target host and to also measure time for messages sent from your computer to the destination. Press the windows button and type cmd and hit enter. Then type-

ping www.somewebsite.com

ping ip address

Telnet helps you with remote assistance. You can use it as-

In the same cmd window type-

telnet HOST PORT

HOST- ip address or domain name

PORT- the port number you want to connect to.

Example- telnet www.somewebsite.com 21

Rdp is a protocol developed by Microsoft, it provides a GUI to connect to another computer. The client rdp software should be installed on your computer and rdp server software should be installed on the server that you have permissions to access.

Rdp syntax-

MSTSC /console  

MSTSC /Admin

/console- connect to the console of a server(NT/XP).

/Admin- connect for administering. 

Regards,
