Port Check

Is a TCP port reachable from multiple global probes? Checks any host:port combination from 6 probes worldwide and shows connect-time per probe — useful for confirming firewall rules, load-balancer health, and anycast reach.

Tool Networking Updated Apr 20, 2026
How to Use
  1. Enter a host:port target — example.com:443, 1.1.1.1:80, or pick a preset.
  2. Each probe attempts a TCP connection + HEAD request. TCP connect time > 0 means the port is reachable.
  3. Open ports show connect time; closed / filtered ports show "failed".
Target
TCP handshake check via globalping.io probes. HTTP protocol also attempted; TCP connect time is what determines port status.
Try:
Reachability

Enter host:port above — TCP reachability from each probe lands here in a few seconds.

What gets measured

TCP connect
Time to complete SYN / SYN-ACK / ACK handshake
Status
open (TCP succeeded), closed (refused), filtered (timeout)
Resolved IP
Actual endpoint the probe reached (CDN anycast visibility)
Multi-probe
Independent checks from different countries / ISPs

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work for non-HTTP ports?

Yes — the tool checks the TCP handshake (timings.tcp). If the port is reachable, you'll see a connect time even if the service isn't HTTP. Non-HTTP ports will show "failed" at the protocol level, but the port status is based on whether TCP connected.

Why can't I scan arbitrary ranges?

This tool checks ONE port at a time across multiple probes — the use case is "is this service reachable worldwide?", not port scanning. We don't offer mass scanning because many networks prohibit it and it's abusive.

Is this legal?

Checking a single port on a host you control or use is fine. Scanning infrastructure you don't own can be illegal in some jurisdictions. Don't.

Common Use Cases

Check firewall exposure

See if a port is inadvertently open on your server from unexpected regions.

Verify load-balancer

Confirm all health-check endpoints are reachable from every probe.

Test a new deployment

New service up? Make sure it's reachable before announcing.
