Telnet commands

The telnet commands allow you to communicate with a remote computer that is using the Telnet protocol. You can run telnet without parameters in order to enter the telnet context, indicated by the Telnet prompt (telnet>). From the Telnet prompt, use the following commands to manage a computer running Telnet Client.
The tlntadmn commands allow you to remotely manage a computer running Telnet Server. These commands are run from the command prompt. Used without parameters, tlntadmn displays local server settings.
