Telnet Client is used to connect to remote machine by using the
Telnet protocol. For example, I'm an old fashion IT guy, and I still
like to configure Cisco Switches/Routers using telnet. If you started to
use Windows 7, you will notice that telnet is not enabled by default !!
Don't panic, it is just a matter of few clicks and telnet will be
enabled again.
Telnet Client allows a computer to connect to a remote Telnet server and run applications on that server. Once logged on, a user is given a command prompt that can be used as if it had been opened locally on the Telnet server's console. Commands that you type at the Telnet client command prompt are sent to the Telnet Server and executed there, as though you were locally logged on to a command prompt session at the server. Output from the commands that you run are sent back to the Telnet client where they are displayed for you to view.
When you first try to run a telnet command, Windows will informs you that telnet is not recognized as a command
