<div><h2>A Free Tool</h2>
<div><a href="https://www.cryer.co.uk/downloads/cryping/index.htm" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">CryPing</a> is a simple command-line network connectivity test tool that expands on the conventional ping command with the ability to ping specific ports; check the status of HTTP, SMTP, POP3, or NNTP services; timestamp output for prolonged monitoring; and set audible alerts for success or failure. GullibleDetective appreciates that it “lets you directly ping a port and get a response, so i.e., you could ping against port 21 and see if the service is responding.”
