Figure 29: Commands pop-up menu (for Connection Menu).
Pressing at any of the four
FREE
fields presents the
Commands
pop-up menu. If it was not free, the
Telnet
and
Rlogin
fields would have been replaced by
Close connection
and
Resume connection
signifying there is a session present.
The
*
** FREE ***
message would be replaced by the name or
IP address of the connected host.
The following describes the options that can appear in the
above menu:
Telnet
This option allows you to make a connection to a
specified host on the network using
telnet
. When
this command is selected, another pop-up menu
appears, giving you the host table list. In addition,
there is a
specify host/IP address
option you can
use for other IP addresses and host names.
Rlogin
This performs the same function as the
Telnet
open command, but uses the
Rlogin
protocol.
While
Telnet
is the most commonly used protocol,
Rlogin
can also be used (especially over WAN
connections because
Rlogin
packets are smaller).
