The name of the target host.
The port number the target host is listening on for incoming connections.
Type of terminal attached to this line; for example, ANSI or WYSE60.
When On, keyboard input is not sent to the remote host until Enter is pressed,
otherwise input is sent every time a key is pressed. Default is Off.
Maps carriage returns (CR) to carriage return line feed (CRLF). The default value is
Off.
Toggles between local echo of entered characters and suppressing local echo. Local
echo is used for normal processing, while suppressing the echo is convenient for
entering text that should not be displayed on the screen, such as passwords. This
parameter can only be used when Line Mode is On. Default is Off.
Defines the echo character. When Line Mode is On, typing the echo character echoes
the text locally and sends only completed lines to the host. This value is in hexadecimal
with a default value of 5 (ASCII value ^E).
Defines the end-of-file character. When Line Mode is On, entering the eof character as
the first character on a line sends the character to the remote host. This value is in
hexadecimal with a default value of 4 (ASCII value ^D).
Defines the erase character. When Line Mode is Off, typing the erase character erases
one character. This value is in hexadecimal with a default value of 8 (ASCII value ^H).
Defines the interrupt character. Typing the interrupt character interrupts the current
process. This value is in hexadecimal with a default value of 3 (ASCII value ^C).
Defines the quit character. Typing the quit character closes and exits the current telnet
session. This value is in hexadecimal with a default value of 1c (ASCII value FS).
Defines the escape character. Returns you to the command line mode. This value is in
hexadecimal with a default value of 1d (ASCII value GS).
