<div dir="ltr">I ran into secure telnet in reading about (read: book knowledge, not real world) Mitel equipment. This thread mentions using putty in raw mode, which is not secure at all.<div><br></div><div><a href="http://mitelforums.com/forum/index.php?topic=3189.0">http://mitelforums.com/forum/index.php?topic=3189.0</a><br>
<div><br></div><div>But the Mitel-specific information also mentions using this app, which used to be given out in the class. They now shy away from using the serial port except when dealing with tech support and have disabled the telnet service.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Unfortunately web searches all seem to

for the most part and I’m finding very little on it

telnet (and presumably telnetd) to use port 992 but I’m not
finding much on HOW to tell it to do that or how I would
determine if a specific telnetd (or telnet command for that
matter) supports this secure setup (i.e. ssl). I know I can
tell the telnet command itself to use port 992 with “telnet
<host> 992” but don’t know if that would be sufficient
for the client side and it still doesn’t tell me what should
be on the server (i.e. telnetd) side.
