TELNET supports:
o Multiple simultaneous connections
o 10 or more simultaneous sessions
o Only one session at a time if it uses TN3270
The TELNET command SHOW STATUS helps you keep track of multiple
sessions.
o Toggling Sessions
To toggle between one open TELNET connection and another:
1. Enter the TELNET escape sequence.
2. If necessary, use the SHOW STATUS command to check the
number of your session with the other host.
3. Enter the TELNET RESUME n command, where n is the number of
the session to which you want to return.
o Session Information
To display a list of your active sessions, use the following
SHOW SESSION command:
TELNET> SHOW SESSION <Return>
Session 01, host finder, port 23
Session 02, host keeper, port 23 (default active session)
If there are no active connections, the SHOW SESSION command
displays the following message:
%TELNET-E-NOSESSION, No active session
