Introduction
Telnet is a network protocol used on the Internet or local area networks to provide a
bidirectional interactive text-oriented communications tool using a virtual terminal
connection. User data is interspersed in-band with telnet control information in an 8-bit
byte oriented data connection over the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). This is a
useful common protocol used to dialog with a remote machine.
A telnet connection is opened with any valid login, which can be administrator,
anonymous, or whatever other logins are configured.
