Connection Tests

To test the connections of the MassTransit server, you need to make sure the server has outbound ports 50000 and 433 open:

To test if your server has outbound port 50000open:

1. Type the following at a command prompt:
   telnet masstransit.grouplogic.com 50000
2. Press Enter. If port 50000 is open, then "Watson!" should be returned.

To test if your server has outbound port 443 open:

1. Type the following at a command prompt:
   telnet IP address 443
2. Press Enter. If port 443 is open, then a blank screen should be returned.

You can also test a connection to the Group Logic server with the built-in contact within MassTransit. If your server is allowed to make outbound connections using port 50000, then you should be able to connect with the Group Logic Server. This Group Logic server contact should be set to automatically place calls to ensure files are sent when testing. This server can be used to deliver log files to Group Logic when requesting technical support for the product.

If you prefer, you could also create a new contact using the Group Logic server but with port 443 as the connection method. You will need to make this contact's "stream" greater than 0 to ensure port 50000 is not used.
