Enable telnet on SSH
- Jan 08, 2024
telnet example:
If you have multiple routing domains make sure you are in the right one.
If you only have the default one. Then it is ok.
Have you tried to ping it? ping <node_ip>
You can also check the node to see on what ports it is listening on, with : netstat
You can also check to see what ports are open from any other machine that can reach that node , using: telnet, nc , Nmap, etc
Also make sure that if you have a firewall in between, it allows this traffic on port 443.

yes, if it says connected then it means the port is opened.

Ping - uses the ICMP protocol to verify if the remote IP, the source (f5 in this case) issues an echo request and the destination (backend server? ) - responds with an echo reply. port ports need to be open via firewalls and acls for this function to work.
Although we cant see your full reply in the window, i would assume you are getting replys - or troubleshooting why you are not ...
On the telnet command - its no a "Sweep" of all ports opened its a very specific test to a specfic port, if you do not include a port- telnet will assume port 23
test to see if the default telnet is open:
telnet 10.223.3.70 OR telnet 10.223.3.70 23
Test to see if port 80 is open
telnet 10.223.3.70 80
telnet 10.223.3.70 443 <-tests for port 443

on the backend server from the command prompt you can search for active open port with netstat - or a dozen other utilites. For me i prefer to use netstat - with the -an switches and then filter to "LISTEN" for all the active ports or to the specific ports i am looking for. i.e
netstat -an |grep LISTEN (for linux)
netstat -an |find "LISTEN" (for window, depending on version or if powershell use findstr )
netstat -an |grep 443
netstat -an |findstr "443"
sure from F5 already node add to it but how use telent please mention the command.
I have already sent you a link for an article with an example:

telnet <node_ip> <port>
