5.2.2 Telnet

5.2.2.1 Introduction to Telnet
Telnet is a simple remote terminal protocol for remote login. Using Telnet, the user
can login to a remote host with its IP address of hostname from his own workstation.
Telnet can send the user's keystrokes to the remote host and send the remote host output
to the user's screen through TCP connection. This is a transparent service, as to the user,
the keyboard and monitor seems to be connected to the remote host directly.
Telnet employs the Client-Server mode, the local system is the Telnet client and the
remote host is the Telnet server. DCS-3950 series switch can be either the Telnet Server
or the Telnet client.
When DCS-3950 series switch is used as the Telnet server, the user can use the
Telnet client program included in Windows or the other operation systems to login to
DCS-3950 series switch, as described earlier in the In-band management section. As a
Telnet server, DCS-3950 series switch allows up to 5 telnet client TCP connections.
And as Telnet client, using telnet command under Admin Mode allows the user to
login to the other remote hosts. DCS-3950 series switch can only establish TCP
connection to one remote host. If a connection to another remote host is desired, the
current TCP connection must be dropped.
