Telnet is a network protocol that enables remote login and other TCP/IP–based network operations. It was developed in 1969 and widely used for managing networks, devices, and other equipment that supports a Telnet service. It is a text–based protocol, and it can be used for accessing remote computers and exchanging data such as webpages, files, or databases. Telnet is a client–server protocol, where a telnet client program on a user’s computer connects to a telnet server program on a remote system. The user can then enter commands that are processed by the server and results displayed back to the user.
