telnet

user levels:

This command establishes a connection with another host on the network using the

admin,

telnet protocol. You must specify the target host but the other arguments (such as

normal

echo, mapnl, mode, etc.) are optional. If you do not specify the other arguments the

 

line telnet values will be used (values set/shown in set telnet or show

 

telnet)

 

If you do specify arguments such as echo, mapnl, mode, etc. the values you enter will

 

override the line telnet values. Note that your values (specified here using the

 

telnet command) expire when your telnet session is finished; values set/shown in

 

set telnet or show telnet can be saved permanently.

When the connection is made you will be prompted for your login name.

Syntax

telnet hostname/inetaddress port [termtype

 

termtype]

[echo on/off] [mapnl on/off]

[mode

 

on/off]

[intr <hex>] [quit <hex>] [eof

<hex>]

 

[erase <hex>] [break <hex>]

 

Where:

 

 

 

hostname/

is the name or internet address of the machine you want to log into

inetaddress

 

 

 

termtype

 

is your terminal type. This argument enables you to pass your terminal

 

 

type to the host. When connecting to a UNIX host, you must define the

 

 

termtype in accordance with its UNIX TERM variable.

 

The termtype argument overrides a termtype value entered into the unit when using the set line or set telnet commands.

echo, mapnl, etc. these are telnet options. They set values once only, for the duration of a single telnet connection. See comments under telnet on page 201 above.
