• <CTRL><char>, where <char> is in the range of ASCII 'A' to ASCII '_'
• <CTRL><char>, where <char> is in the range of ASCII 'a' to ASCII 'z' (note that lower
case letters are converted to upper case before they are used)
• <char>, where <char> is in the range of ASCII '!' to ASCII '~'
To specify the <CTRL> key in the set escape command, use the ’>’ character. The
following is an example of setting the escape character equal to ‘<CTRL> P’:
status
The status command can be used to interrogate information about the current Telnet
session.
toggle
The toggle command can be used to set various operating parameters for the current
Telnet session. Currently, the only parameter available is debug .
If no parameters are specified on the toggle command line (or if toggle ? is entered),
the following help message is displayed:
The toggle debug command allows you to turn the Telnet debug mode on or off. If the
debug mode is turned on, messages beginning with “[TELNET-C]” may appear in the
system log file. Most users will not find these messages helpful. If you have difficulty with
the system Telnet client feature, we suggest you call your Distributor or Customer Support.
T ERMINAL C OMMANDS
The CyberSWITCH supports two terminal types: vt100 and ANSI. When a Telnet connection is
established, the system attempts to negotiate the terminal type. When the negotiation fails, the
system sets the terminal type to vt100.
To successfully issue the pkt display , semi perm , and mc commands, you must have the
terminal type set identically for both the Telnet emulator and the terminal emulation. To do this,
use the
term set command.
The following commands are used to display the terminal type currently in use or to set the
terminal type.
term
Displays the terminal type name.
term set <terminal type>
Allows you to set the terminal type. You may set the terminal type to either vt100 or ANSI.
[System Name]> set escape ^P
Escape character is ‘^P’.
[System Name]> toggle
Available toggle commands:
debug - Turn TELNET debug mode on or off.
