httping: Ping the web server on `host` and `port`.
$ httping -h ${host} -p ${port}
try on your machine

The command you provided is a usage example of the httping command-line tool with the provided arguments ${host} and ${port}.

httping is a utility used to measure the round-trip time (RTT) of sending HTTP requests to a specified host and port. The -h option specifies the hostname or IP address of the target server, and the ${host} argument is the placeholder for the actual value. Similarly, the -p option specifies the port number, and the ${port} argument is the placeholder for the actual port.

To use this command, you need to replace ${host} and ${port} with the desired hostname or IP address of the target server and its respective port number.
