Connection to a Telnet Listener Results in Double
Echoes or Double Lines
Solution
If you are experiencing problems with double echoes or double lines after connecting to a
Telnet listener, the problem might be that the attached Telnet listener host system and the
Telnet client are both performing echoing. This is because the Telnet listener on the access
server does not explicitly negotiate echoing when establishing a Telnet connection.
Therefore, the Telnet client performs local echoing.
After the connection is established, use the vendor’s Telnet client user interface to change
from Local Echo to Remote Echo (if double echoes) or from Line Mode to Character
Mode (if double lines).
