# nc
> Netcat is a versatile utility for working with TCP or UDP data.
> More information: <https://nmap.org/ncat>.
- Listen on a specified port and print any data received:
`nc -l {{port}}`
- Connect to a certain port:
`nc {{ip_address}} {{port}}`
- Set a timeout:
`nc -w {{timeout_in_seconds}} {{ipaddress}} {{port}}`
- Keep the server up after the client detaches:
`nc -k -l {{port}}`
- Keep the client up even after EOF:
`nc -q {{timeout}} {{ip_address}}`
- Scan the open ports of a specified host:
`nc -v -z {{ip_address}} {{port}}`
- Act as proxy and forward data from a local TCP port to the given remote host:
`nc -l {{local_port}} | nc {{hostname}} {{remote_port}}`
