Need to check whether HTTPS port 443 is Open for Outbound Communication.

[Rajdeep Ganguly]

1. Navigate to System Diagnostics > Stats > Stats. 2. Click on the 'Test Connectivity' link. 3. In the 'Host' field, enter the IP address or domain name of the server you want to connect to. 4. In the 'Port' field, enter 443. 5. Click on the 'Test' button. ServiceNow will then attempt to establish a connection to the specified server on port 443. If the connection is successful, it means that port 443 is open for outbound communication. If the connection fails, it means that port 443 is not open for outbound communication. Please note that this test only checks if ServiceNow can establish a connection to the specified server on port 443. It does not check if the server is actually listening for HTTPS requests on port 443.

Sure, you can check whether HTTPS port 443 is open for outbound communication in ServiceNow by using the 'Test Connectivity' feature. Here are the steps: 1. Navigate to System Diagnostics > Stats > Stats. 2. Click on the 'Test Connectivity' link. 3. In the 'Host' field, enter the IP address or domain name of the server you want to connect to. 4. In the 'Port' field, enter 443. 5. Click on the 'Test' button. ServiceNow will then attempt to establish a connection to the specified server on port 443. If the connection is successful, it means that port 443 is open for outbound communication. If the connection fails, it means that port 443 is not open for outbound communication. Please note that this test only checks whether ServiceNow can establish a connection to the specified server on port 443. It does not check whether the server is actually listening on port 443, or whether it is configured to accept HTTPS connections. nowKB.com

Sure, you can check whether HTTPS port 443 is open for outbound communication in ServiceNow by using the following steps:

1. Navigate to "System Diagnostics" > "Stats" in your ServiceNow instance.
2. Scroll down to the "Network" section.
3. Click on the "Test Connectivity" button.
4. In the "Host" field, enter the IP address or domain name you want to check.
5. In the "Port" field, enter "443".
6. Click "Test".

If the port is open for outbound communication, you will see a success message. If not, you will see an error message.

Please note that this test only checks if the ServiceNow instance can reach the specified host and port. It does not guarantee that other systems in your network can reach the same host and port.

Also, this test does not check if the specified host accepts HTTPS connections on port 443. It only checks if the host accepts TCP connections on port 443.

If you need to check if the host accepts HTTPS connections on port 443, you may need to use other tools or methods outside of ServiceNow.

To check whether HTTPS port 443 is open for outbound communication in ServiceNow, you can use the following steps:

1. Navigate to "System Diagnostics" > "Stats" > "Stats" in your ServiceNow instance.

2. Scroll down to the "Network" section.

3. Look for the "Outbound HTTP Requests" section.

4. Check the "Port" column for port 443. If it's listed, then it's open for outbound communication.

Please note that this is a general check. For a specific integration, you might need to test the connection to the specific endpoint using a REST message or similar method.

If you don't have access to the "Stats" page or if you need to check the port for a specific integration, you can create a REST message or a similar outbound request to the desired endpoint and check if it's successful. If it's not, you might need to contact your network administrator to open the port.

To check if HTTPS Port 443 is open for outbound communication in ServiceNow, follow these steps:

1. Using ServiceNow Stats: Go to System Diagnostics > Stats, scroll to the Network section, and click Test Connectivity. Enter the target host and port 443, then click Test. A success message confirms the port is open.

2. Using Outbound HTTP Requests: Navigate to System Logs > Transactions, filter by Outbound HTTP Requests, and check if port 443 is used successfully.

3. Using a REST Message: Create a test REST message in System Web Services > REST Message, set the endpoint to an HTTPS URL, and send a request. A successful response confirms outbound access.

4. Command-line Tests (External Verification): Run telnet your_target_host 443, curl -Is https://your_target_host, or Test-NetConnection -ComputerName your_target_host -Port 443 to check connectivity.

If tests fail, review firewall rules and proxy settings, or contact the network administrator to allow outbound traffic on Port 443.
