Verifying the accessibility via web browser   

  • If yes, your On-Premise Poller is connected to the Site24x7 server.

Notes
If the Site24x7 server is not reachable, please check your network connectivity.

Verifying the accessibility on Linux machines via terminal

If you have installed the On-Premise Poller using a silent installation on your machine, follow these steps to check accessibility:

1. Check DNS resolution and TCP connectivity  

Run the following command:

nc -zv pluspoller.site24x7.com 443

Alternatively, run:

timeout 3 bash -c '</dev/tcp/pluspoller.site24x7.com/443' && echo "OPEN" || echo "CLOSED"

2. Perform a full connectivity check  

If curl is installed, use the following commands:
  • Without a proxy:
    curl -s -o /dev/null -w "HTTP Status: %{http_code}\nRemote IP: %{remote_ip}\nSSL Connect Time: %{time_appconnect}s\nTotal Time: %{time_total}s\n" https://pluspoller.site24x7.com

If curl is not installed, use the following commands.

  • Without a proxy:
    echo "Q" | openssl s_client -connect pluspoller.site24x7.com:443 -brief

  • With a proxy:
    echo "Q" | openssl s_client -connect pluspoller.site24x7.com:443 -proxy user:password@proxy_host:proxy_port -brief

3. Check the network path  

To verify the network path, run the following command:

traceroute pluspoller.site24x7.com

Verifying the accessibility on Windows machine via terminal

1. Check DNS resolution and TCP connectivity  

Open PowerShell and run:

Test-NetConnection -ComputerName pluspoller.site24x7.com -Port 443

Notes
The above command works in PowerShell 4.0 or later.

Alternatively, run:

if ((New-Object System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient).ConnectAsync("pluspoller.site24x7.com", 443).Wait(3000)) { "OPEN" } else { "CLOSED" }

2. Perform a full connectivity check  

If curl is installed, use the following commands:

  • Without a proxy:
    curl.exe -s -o NUL -w "HTTP Status: %{http_code} | Remote IP: %{remote_ip} | SSL Connect Time: %{time_appconnect}s | Total Time: %{time_total}s" https://pluspoller.site24x7.com

Notes
Remove -U "username:password" if authentication is not configured.

If curl.exe is not installed, open PowerShell and use the following commands.

3. Check the network path  

To verify the network path, run the following command:

tracert pluspoller.site24x7.com
