Specifying CHARACTER SIZE

size can be specified in the transmit direction, receive direction, or both directions.
Example: Setting CHARACTER SIZE

directions for port 5:

direction. To set the character size in the receive direction, use RECEIVE instead of

Mapping Keyboard Characters to Telnet Functions
You can assign keyboard characters to various Telnet functions. The SIGNAL
REQUEST characteristic can enable or disable all these functions. The factory-set
default is ENABLED.

Local> CHANGE PORT 5 TELNET CLIENT SIGNAL REQUEST DISABLED
Example: Mapping Keyboard Characters

You can use the SET SESSION command to map a Telnet function to a key for a
particular session. This mapping only lasts for the duration of the specified session.
You cannot map a keyboard character to more than one function.
