-# TCP endpoint monitoring with Netdata
-
-Monitors TCP endpoint availability and response time.
-
-Following charts are drawn per host:
-
-1. **Latency** ms
-
- - Time required to connect to a TCP port.
- Displays latency in 0.1 ms resolution. If the connection failed, the value is missing.
-
-2. **Status** boolean
-
- - Connection successful
- - Could not create socket: possible DNS problems
- - Connection refused: port not listening or blocked
- - Connection timed out: host or port unreachable
-
-## Configuration
-
-Edit the `python.d/portcheck.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
-directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
-
-```bash
-cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
-sudo ./edit-config python.d/portcheck.conf
-```
-
-```yaml
-server:
- host: 'dns or ip' # required
- port: 22 # required
- timeout: 1 # optional
- update_every: 1 # optional
-```
-
-### notes
-
-- The error chart is intended for alarms, badges or for access via API.
-- A system/service/firewall might block Netdata's access if a portscan or
- similar is detected.
-- Currently, the accuracy of the latency is low and should be used as reference only.
