Special Telnet Sequences
At any time during an active Telnet session, Telnet commands can be listed by pressing the Ctrl-shift-
6-? keys at the system prompt.
A sample of this list follows. Note that the Ctrl-shift-6 sequence appears as ^^ on the screen.
Several concurrent Telnet sessions can be opened and switched. To open a subsequent session, the
current connection has to be suspended by pressing the escape sequence keys (Ctrl-shift-6) and x to
return to the system command prompt. Then open a new connection with the
telnet
User EXEC
mode command.

Options Description
/echo Enables local echo.
/quiet Prevents onscreen display of all messages from the software.
/source-interface Specifies the source interface.
/stream Turns on stream processing, which enables a raw TCP stream with no Telnet
control sequences. A stream connection does not process Telnet options and can
be appropriate for connections to ports running UNIX-to-UNIX Copy Program
(UUCP) and other non-Telnet protocols.
