It tells the program Z to use parameters which is to use the HTTP protocol
to IP address 69.93.119.200 and connect to port 9000.

Normally HTTP will connect to the default port of 80 when no specific port
is defined. The IP:port form of IP addressing says to connect to the
specified port at the given IP address.

Responses will be received back only if a HTTP server is receiving
connections on the designated port number. In your example, there would
have to be a HTTP server started at IP address 69.93.119.200 that was
listening for connections on port 9000.
