9.1.2 Telnet Terminal Services
Telnet Services
Telnet is an application layer protocol in the TCP/IP protocol suite. It provides remote login
and a virtual terminal service through the network.
The router provides the following Telnet services:
z
Telnet server: You can run the Telnet client program on a PC to log in to the router,
configure and manage it. The router acts as a Telnet server.
z
Telnet client: You can run the terminal emulation program or the Telnet client program
on a PC to connect with the router. With the
telnet
command, you can log in to other
routers to configure and mange them. As shown in
Figure 9-1
, Router A serves as both
the Telnet server and the Telnet client.

Redirection terminal services: You can run the Telnet client program on a PC to log in to
the router through a specified interface. Then connect with the serial interface devices
that are connected to the asynchronous interface of the router, as shown in
Figure 9-2
.
The typical application is to connect the 8/16-port asynchronous interface of the router
with multiple devices for their remote configuration and maintenance.
