Trying out http (client side) for yourself

1. Telnet to your favorite Web server:

Opens TCP connection to port 80

(default http server port) at www.eurecom.fr.

Anything typed in sent

to port 80 at www.eurecom.fr

telnet www.eurecom.fr 80

2. Type in a GET http request:

GET /~ross/index.html HTTP/1.0

By typing this in (hit carriage

return twice), you send

this minimal (but complete)

GET request to http server

3. Look at response message sent by http server!
