In networking, sometime while performing network trouble shooting, you may like to quickly test if the connection to a website is available. Without using a web browser, you also can use the telnet command that is available in most of the login terminal like Command prompt, unix login shell or Cisco login terminal.
To test a connection to a website like www.abc.com just key in
% telnet www.abc.com 80
If a connection is establish, you may like to subsequently key in "GET /" to retrieve the index file from this site.
