5250 Telnet client sessions

This topic provides information on using this emulation type to sign on and use applications on a remote system that has a Telnet server application.

Telnet 5250 client support allows iSeries™ users to sign on to other systems and access full-screen 5250 applications. 5250 full-screen support can only be negotiated with a Telnet server application running on an iSeries server or a system that supports the Telnet 5250 server. Negotiating 525x work station support with the remote Telnet server application activates 5250 full-screen support.
