+SYNTAX:
+check_conn OPTIONS
+
+You can create a file named ./check_conn.cfg
+and add your connections there. 
+To start you can copy the file ./check_conn.cfg.dist
+
+OPTIONS:
+
+    -h or --help   show this help.
+    -t CONNECTION  test given connection; This param ignores entries
+                   in the config file. For multiple connection tests
+                   quote the parameter value and set spaces between
+                   the connections.
+
+PARAMETERS:
+
+    CONNECTION     Connection in the same syntax like in the config:
+                   tcp/host/port
+                   udp/host/port
+EXAMPLES:
+
+check_conn         If no param is given it checks entries in ./check_conn.cfg
+
+check_conn -t "tcp/api.example.com/443"
+                   Check a single connection
+
+check_conn -t "tcp/api.example.com/443 tcp/localhost/3306"
+                   Check multiple connections.
+
+
+```
+
+## Examples
+
+Check a single tcp port which is currently open:
+
+```txt
+./check_conn -t "tcp/localhost/80"
+OK: tcp check - 1 checks - 1 OK; 0 warnings; 0 errors 
+tcp/localhost/80 OK
+```
+
+Check multiple connections - one port is open the other closed:
+
+```txt
+./check_conn -t "tcp/localhost/22 tcp/localhost/443"
+CRITICAL: tcp check - 2 checks - 1 OK; 0 warnings; 1 errors 
+tcp/localhost/22 FAILED
+tcp/localhost/443 OK
+```
