I would like to find a command(s) that will allow me to get more information around an open socket connection. Capture open port information, close open ports and restart port without having to reboot.

Any ideas?
Thanks
 
lsof is useful for obtaining information about a socket, e.g. lsof -i :<portnumber>. You may need to download it from the Porting and Archive Centre. Opening, closing or "restarting" a port usually consists of stopping or starting the process(es) or services that are using that port.
