Troubleshooting
1. How to check if port is open
a. telnet 10.8.217.216 8080
i. If it is immediately disconnected then the port is on a live host and
is closed (or a firewall sent you a TCP reset).
ii. If a window opens the port is open.
iii. If it times out then you didn't reach the host/port (or a firewall
dropped the packet)
