How to ping and test for a specific port from Linux or Unix command line


I wanted to see if a specific port of a desktop computer or server is open from a Linux or Unix command line shell. How do I ping a specific port? Is it possible possible to ping an 192.168.1.254:80 or 192.168.1.254:23 ports?
