Know the definition of Telnet and its history, functions and how it works

For some people may have never heard this term, a technology on the network that is commonly referred to as Telnet. The definition of Telnet or Telecommunication Network is a client-server protocol that can provide access to the computer remotely (Remote).

This Telnet device is commonly abbreviated to TN and can also be interpreted as a virtual or terminal emulation utilizing that protocol with the same purpose of accessing a remote computer.

In addition to login or access other computers Telnet is also commonly used to access various public services such as catalogs, libraries or other types of databases. In other words we can connect to each other and access between computers over the network. It is believed to be easier than giving the application to all users who want to access.

It is now a lot of emerging software-special software Remote such as Team Viewer and other-others. But still for its use requires an Internet connection and because it has a special function for the Remote from a further distance Team Viewer also requires the ID and Password of the target computer. In Telnet usage is more or less the same but without involving outside software (using the Command Line on the computer) as well as a smaller distance.
