When working across multiple platforms and flavours of IX, a system administrator might not always have tools like telnet or netcat available to test network connections. One tool that is on all flavours of IX and is universal is python.
A quick python script for testing network connection.
I used this python script to send a message via UDP to a logstash server.
import socket
message = 'Flah blah bleh'
byteToSend = str.encode(message)
serverAddressPort = ('IP Address', port)
bufferSize = 1024
soc = socket.socket(family=socket.AF_INET, type=socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
soc.sendto(byteToSend, serverAddressPort)
message = 'Flah blah bleh'
byteToSend = str.encode(message)
serverAddressPort = ('IP Address', port)
bufferSize = 1024
soc = socket.socket(family=socket.AF_INET, type=socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
soc.sendto(byteToSend, serverAddressPort)
