Most network equipment and operating systems with a TCP/IP stack also support some kind of

TELNET service server for remote configuration. Security-related shortcomings have limited

TELNET (TErminaL NETwork) usage, although TELNET is still widely used when diagnosing

problems, manually "talking" to other services without specialized client software, and administration

of network elements such as integration and maintenance of core network elements.
