Telnet. Telnet (short for "teletype network") [1] [2] is a client/server application protocol that provides access to virtual terminals of remote systems on local area networks or the Internet. [3] It is a protocol for bidirectional 8-bit communications. Its main goal was to connect terminal devices and terminal-oriented processes.
v. t. e. The Secure Shell Protocol ( SSH) is a cryptographic network protocol for operating network services securely over an unsecured network. [1] Its most notable applications are remote login and command-line execution. SSH was designed on Unix-like operating systems, as a replacement for Telnet and for unsecured remote Unix shell protocols ...
Virtual Network Computing. Virtual Network Computing logo. Virtual Network Computing ( VNC) is a graphical desktop-sharing system that uses the Remote Frame Buffer protocol (RFB) to remotely control another computer. It transmits the keyboard and mouse input from one computer to another, relaying the graphical- screen updates, over a network.
PuTTY ( / ˈpʌti /) [4] is a free and open-source terminal emulator, serial console and network file transfer application. It supports several network protocols, including SCP, SSH, Telnet, rlogin, and raw socket connection. It can also connect to a serial port. The name "PuTTY" has no official meaning. [5]
t. e. The Gopher protocol ( / ˈɡoʊfər /) is a communication protocol designed for distributing, searching, and retrieving documents in Internet Protocol networks. The design of the Gopher protocol and user interface is menu-driven, and presented an alternative to the World Wide Web in its early stages, but ultimately fell into disfavor ...
Transport Layer Security ( TLS) is a cryptographic protocol designed to provide communications security over a computer network. The protocol is widely used in applications such as email, instant messaging, and voice over IP, but its use in securing HTTPS remains the most publicly visible. The TLS protocol aims primarily to provide security ...
SecureCRT is a GUI-based telnet client and terminal emulator originally called CRT. It was first released in the autumn of 1995 by VanDyke Software. [6] [7] Originally released as a premium version of CRT with support for SSH encryption, SecureCRT later absorbed the CRT product entirely. The program is part of a line of networking software ...
These are e.g. terminal type, width and height of the window. This protocol is used by the telnet client and service, but also by SSH. On the other hand, only the combination of Telnet service and Telnet client is outdated and insecure, because they transmit the data in plain text. Telnet over an SSH tunnel, on the other hand, is secure.
