Network Working Group A. McKenzie
Request for Comments: 562 BBN-TENEX
NIC: 18638 28 August 1973
Updates: RFC 495
References: RFCs 513, 529
Modifications to the TELNET Specification
Almost four months have passed since the new TELNET Protocol
specification was published. Since then, only two RFCs have been
issued suggesting modifications, and the most recent of these was
distributed two months ago. Further, the date from the old TELNET to
the new TELNET (1 January 1974) is only four months away. It
therefore seems appropriate to officially modify the specification to
account for the suggested modifications, and to declare a moratorium
on the incorporation of additional suggestions until after the
switchover. (Of course, no moratorium on the specification of
additional options is required.)
The two attached documents represent the revised TELNET Protocol
specifications; they replace NIC #15372, TELNET Protocol
Specification, and NIC #15373, TELNET Option Specifications. The
remainder of this RFC summarizes the changes. Page numbers refer to
the earlier documents.
Changes to TELNET Protocol Specification
Page 8 - The phrase "blocked on input" is removed (see RFC
#513).
Page 9, 10 - An additional use of IP is mentioned (see RFC #529).
Page 10 - The explanation of AO is expanded (see RFC #513).
Page 11 - The definition of "'print position' (e.g., an
overstrike)" is clarified (see RFC #513).
Page 11, 12 - The description of the TELNET Synch Signal is
reworked to be in conformance with the ideas of RFC
#529 (also see RFC #513).
Page 14 - The explanation of the CR-NUL convention is expanded
(see RFC #513).
Page 16 - An additional command, End of Subnegotiation
Parameters (SE) is defined (see RFCs 513, 529).
