VMS Help TCPIP Services, TELNET, TN3270  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    You can run a TELNET session with a host that uses IBM 3270 model
    terminals by using the TN3270 command. The TN3270 command:

    o  Provides IBM 3270 Information Display System (IDS) terminal
       emulation.

    o  Assigns IBM 3270 functions to your DIGITAL keyboard.

    o  Assigns IDS functions to specific keys.

    During a TN3270 session, you can:

    -  Redefine keys interactively (DEF KEY Function).

    -  Redefine keys permanently (Key Definition File).

    -  Record your sessions (Recording Sessions).

    -  Troubleshoot problems (TN3270 Troubleshooting).

                                   NOTE

       When you run TN3270, you can only have one session. You
       cannot have other sessions running simultaneously, as you
       can when running normal TELNET sessions.

    TELNET can emulate the following IBM 3270 model terminals:

    Model                  Screen Size (Rows x Columns)

    IBM 3278 Model 2       24 x 80
    IBM 3278 Model 3       32 x 80
    IBM 3278 Model 4       43 x 80
    IBM 3278 Model 5       27 x 132
