    1. You don’t need to use backticks if you’re not capturing the output of the command. Just run the command.
    2. If you’re putting the output to devnull, you don’t need to append (>>), just write (>).
    3. That should work. If it’s not working, something else is wrong.

      PORT=80
      nc -zv -w30 127.0.0.1 $PORT > /dev/null
