tcp_conn_validator is used to verify that a service is listening on a given port.
It could be used to test either a remote or a local service. It support both IPv4 and
IPv6 connection strings. It also works with hostname.
tcp_conn_validator { 'foo-machine ssh service' :
host => '192.168.0.42',
port => 22,
}The namevar of this resource can also be the connection string. It comes handy when one already have an array of ip:port or hostname:port string to test.
mongodb_cluster_nodes = ['192.168.0.2:27017', 'node02.foo.bar.com:27017']
tcp_conn_validator { $mongodb_cluster_nodes : }####host

####port
Port on which the service is supposed to listen. Required if the namevar is not a connection string.
