Telnet Session Management Characters

Telnet session management characters provide command line editing and process management during a Telnet session. Table 2-3 lists the keywords you use with the SET PORT commands to assign Telnet session management functions to control characters

Table 2-3. Telnet session functions
Keyword	Telnet Session Function
TELNET ABORT	Stops a program from sending output to the terminal without
	terminating the program itself.
TELNET ATTENTION	Returns the session to the local operating system command prompt.
	If you press the Telnet Attention key during a Telnet session at a
	Model 3395/3395A Terminal Server, the remote terminal server port
	passes the break request to the host or device where it is connected.
	(This also happens in any session if you press the <Break> key when
	the PORT BREAK characteristic is set to REMOTE.)
TELNET ERASE CHARACTER	Deletes the character to the left of the cursor.
TELNET ERASE LINE	Deletes all data to the left of the cursor in the current line.
TELNET INTERRUPT	Suspends, interrupts, or aborts a user process.
TELNET QUERY	Requests that the Telnet host or port send a signal to the terminal
	that indicates it is still up and running.
TELNET SYNCHRONIZE	Regains control of a process that is no longer executing properly.

See Chapter 3 for more information about how to use these keywords with the SET PORT commands.
