From 95867147f5cdf6650dbfc207c8dada86246f23ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Denys Vlasenko Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2019 16:47:37 +0200 Subject: telnet: add disabled code to emit EC and IP > I'm trying to connect to a Korenix 3005 switch through telnet > for management purposes, and all is well except for the backspace character > - seems like my switch doesn't handle it too well and instead of erasing > the last character all it does is print some garbage to the screen. > I've had the same issue before while using putty, but saw a solution that > suggests to enable "Telnet special commands" in the options menu, and it > worked.
