Tell us what’s happening:

I ran a test today during the implementation of this project and found that IP address 209.216.230.240 does not yet have port 443 open at this time. For this reason, one of the tests fails. (test_port_scanner_ip)

Summary

I ran a test today during the implementation of this project and found that IP address 209.216.230.240 does not yet have port 443 open at this time. For this reason, one of the tests fails. (test_port_scanner_ip)

Workaround

I checked the boilerplate repository and found the same situation as in the following pull request.

I have a fix in hand to allow the test to pass instead of 209.216.230.240.
I will not submit a pull request, but I hope this comment will help someone else :slightly_smiling_face:

My investigation

This is FYI: I confirmed with nc command in my Gitpod env.
