Example: Mapping Keyboard Characters
The following example shows how to map the AO function to the Delete key:
Local> CHANGE PORT 5 TELNET CLIENT AO <DEL>
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.

The following table shows key function definitions mapped to specific keys. You

NONE. For example, to disable AO for port 5, you enter the following:
Local> CHANGE PORT 5 TELNET CLIENT AO NONE
