Not that I'm aware of, but you could try a couple of things to achieve the same result.
- Run telnet or smtp on your test port
For example, if you run ssh on your test port, and then connect to it from the client with nc or netcat, you'll see the ssh response from the server.
- Use nc or netcat to listen on the port
Running nc -l on the server test port, and nc on the client will let you test sending characters between the systems to see that traffic is getting through.
Another useful tool to monitor the server's firewall is:-
Code:
watch -d iptables -nvL
