Configuring Individual Telnet Client Session Characteristics

Specifying AUTOFLUSH

The AUTOFLUSH characteristic automatically invokes the AO function whenever you enter the IP, SYNCH, AYT, EOR, or BRK characters. AUTOFLUSH aborts all output on its way to the user’s terminal

By default, AUTOFLUSH is enabled for IP, and is disabled for SYNCH and AYT.

Example: Disabling AUTOFLUSH

The following example shows how to disable AUTOFLUSH for the IP character on port 5:

Local> CHANGE PORT 5 TELNET CLIENT AUTOFLUSH IP DISABLED

When you enter a SHOW PORT CHARACTERISTICS command, the -f and +f symbols indicate if AUTOFLUSH is disabled or enabled for a given character.

Specifying AUTOSYNCH

The AUTOSYNCH characteristic automatically invokes SYNCH function whenever you enter the IP, AO, or AYT characters. (Refer to Mapping Keyboard Characters to Telnet Functions in this chapter.) AUTOSYNCH causes all output on it way to the remote process to be dropped. This function allows IP, AO, or AYT to have a more immediate effect.

By default, AUTOSYNCH is enabled for IP, and disabled for AO and AYT.

Example: Specifying AUTOSYNCH

The following example shows how to disable AUTOSYNCH for IP and enable AUTOSYNCH for AO on port 5:

Local> CHANGE PORT 5 TELNET CLIENT AUTOSYNCH IP DISABLED

Local> CHANGE PORT 5 TELNET CLIENT AUTOSYNCH AO ENABLED

When you enter a SHOW PORT CHARACTERISTICS command, the -s and +s symbols indicate if AUTOSYNCH is disabled or enabled for a given character.

Specifying Telnet Client Newline

The NEWLINE characteristics allow the user to define a 1- or 2-character sequence that will be interpreted as a new line. This characteristic is useful for devices that generate or recognize sequences for a new line other than CRLF or CR. There are four different directions as follows. In this case, terminal specifies the user at the access server and host specifies the Telnet server at the remote end of the connection.

∙NEWLINE FROM TERMINAL — When entered, the character sequence is interpreted as a new line. The factory-set default is <CR>.
