Table C-74. Commands Used in tn3270 Command Mode

Command Description
close Closes the connection to the remote host and returns
you to the CLI prompt. On the Remote Annex, this
method of ending a connection is equivalent to using
quit (see Ending a tn3270 Session on page A-226).
open [host [port]] Opens a connection to host. Specify host as either an IP
address (in dotted decimal notation) or a host name. If
you use a name, it must be defined in the Remote
Annex's host table or available from the Remote
Annex's name server. If you do not specify a host,
tn3270 prompts you for it by displaying "to:". If you
do not specify a port, tn3270 connects to the default
Telnet port (23). Note: If your Remote Annex is
already connected to a host via tn3270, you cannot use
open to make a tn3270 connection to another host. To
do that, enter the CLI attention string (defined via the
CLI stty command), and then re-invoke tn3270 from
the CLI.
quit Closes the connection to the remote host and returns
you to the CLI prompt. On the Remote Annex, quit is
equivalent to close (see Ending a tn3270 Session on
page A-226).
status Displays the status of the current tn3270 connection.
<CR> Entering a carriage return (and nothing else) at the
tn3270 prompt resumes the suspended session. (You
suspend a session by entering the escape character.)
? [command] Displays information about one or all of the commands
described in this table. If you specify command, ?
displays information about that particular command.
Issued without an argument, ? displays summaries of
all commands.
