The terminal types are defined in STD 2 – Assigned Numbers.<br />

13.1.6 Telnet basic comm<strong>and</strong>s<br />

The primary goal of the Telnet protocol is the provision of a st<strong>and</strong>ard interface for<br />

hosts over a network. To allow the connection to start, the Telnet protocol<br />

defines a st<strong>and</strong>ard representation for some functions:<br />

<strong>IP</strong> Interrupt Process<br />

AO Abort Output<br />

AYT Are You There<br />

EC Erase Character<br />

EL Erase Line<br />

SYNCH Synchronize<br />

13.1.7 Terminal emulation (Telnet 3270)<br />

Telnet can be used to make a <strong>TCP</strong>/<strong>IP</strong> connection to an SNA host. However,<br />

Telnet 3270 is used to provide 3270 Telnet emulation (TN3270). The following<br />

differences between traditional Telnet <strong>and</strong> 3270 terminal emulation make it<br />

necessary for additional Telnet options specifically for TN3270 to be defined:<br />

► 3270 terminal emulation uses block mode rather than line mode.<br />

► 3270 terminal emulation uses the EBCDIC character set rather than the<br />

ASCII character set.<br />

► 3270 terminal emulation uses special key functions, such as ATTN <strong>and</strong><br />

SYSREQ.<br />

The TN3270 connection over Telnet is accomplished by the negotiation of the<br />

following three different Telnet options:<br />

► Terminal type<br />

► Binary transmission<br />

► End of record<br />
