A small perl script that checks to see if a TCP port is open on a remote host and produces timing statistics for nagios.
Tries to create a session to a remote TCP port to test if the port is available, it also can produce timing statistics for Nagios to collect.

check_port.pl -p -h (-c -w -v)
-p # port number to examine
-h # hostname or ip address to contact
-c # the number of seconds to wait before a going critical
-w # the number of seconds to wait before a flagging a warning
-v # creates nagios performance information

e.g check_port.pl -p 80 -h www.google.com -c 1.5 -w 1.0 -v

How can I add this component to my Nagios XI?
Great

Works really well with minimal dependencies. I edited this to reverse the normal alert, in order to alert if RDP is accessible on windows hosts. It took maybe 5 quick changes, because it is clearly written.
