What you are looking for is called PINGPORT, which was written in REXX. The author is Jeff Beech-Garwood and he had sent me a copy when I asked for something similar back in 2017, on IBMTCP-L. I can send you a copy of it off-list.

Tcpping lets you find out if a specific port is accessible on a remote system.
