    <p><c>Common Test</c> specific layer on top of Telnet client
      <c>ct_telnet_client.erl</c>.</p>

    <p>Use this module to set up Telnet connections, send commands, and
      perform string matching on the result. For information about how to use
      <c>ct_telnet</c> and configure connections, specifically for UNIX hosts,
      see the
      <seealso marker="unix_telnet"><c>unix_telnet</c></seealso> manual page.
    </p>

    <p>Default values defined in <c>ct_telnet</c>:</p>
    <marker id="Default_values"/>

    <list type="bulleted">
      <item><p>Connection timeout (time to wait for connection) = 10
        seconds</p></item>
      <item><p>Command timeout (time to wait for a command to return) =
        10 seconds</p></item>
      <item><p>Max number of reconnection attempts = 3</p></item>
      <item><p>Reconnection interval (time to wait in between
        reconnection attempts) = 5 seconds</p></item>

        connection is idle) = <c>true</c></p></item>
      <item><p>Polling limit (max number of times to poll to get a
        remaining string terminated) = 0</p></item>
      <item><p>Polling interval (sleep time between polls) = 1 second</p>

      <item><p>The TCP_NODELAY option for the telnet socket

    <p><c>Millisec = integer(), N = integer()</c></p>

    <p>Enter the <c>telnet_settings</c> term in a configuration file included
      in the test and <c>ct_telnet</c> retrieves the information
      automatically.</p>

    <p><c>keep_alive</c> can be specified per connection, if necessary. For

    <title>Logging</title>
    <marker id="Logging"/>

    <p>The default logging behavior of <c>ct_telnet</c> is to print information
      about performed operations, commands, and their corresponding results to
      the test case HTML log. The following is not printed to the HTML
      log: text strings sent from the Telnet server that are not explicitly
      received by a <c>ct_telnet</c> function, such as <c>expect/3</c>.
      However, <c>ct_telnet</c> can be configured to use a special purpose
      event handler, implemented in <c>ct_conn_log_h</c>, for logging
      <em>all</em> Telnet traffic. To use this handler, install a <c>Common
      Test</c> hook named <c>cth_conn_log</c>. Example (using the test suite
      information function):</p>

    <pre>
 suite() -&gt;
     [{ct_hooks, [{cth_conn_log, [{conn_mod(),hook_options()}]}]}].</pre>

    <p><c>conn_mod()</c> is the name of the <c>Common Test</c> module
      implementing the connection protocol, that is, <c>ct_telnet</c>.</p>

    <p>The <c>cth_conn_log</c> hook performs unformatted logging of Telnet
      data to a separate text file. All Telnet communication is captured and
      printed, including any data sent from the server. The link to
      this text file is located at the top of the test case HTML log.</p>

    <p>By default, data for all Telnet connections is logged in one common
      file (named <c>default</c>), which can get messy, for example, if
      multiple Telnet sessions are running in parallel. Therefore a separate
      log file can be created for each connection. To configure this, use hook
      option <c>hosts</c> and list the names of the servers/connections
      to be used in the suite. The connections must be named for this to
      work (see
      <seealso marker="#open-1"><c>ct_telnet:open/1,2,3,4</c></seealso>).</p>

    <p>Hook option <c>log_type</c> can be used to change the
      <c>cth_conn_log</c> behavior. The default value of this option is
      <c>raw</c>, which results in the behavior described above. If the value
      is set to <c>html</c>, all Telnet communication is printed to the test
      case HTML log instead.</p>

    <p>All <c>cth_conn_log</c> hook options described can also be
      specified in a configuration file with configuration variable
      <c>ct_conn_log</c>.</p>

    <p><em>Example:</em></p>
 
    <pre>
 {ct_conn_log, [{ct_telnet,[{log_type,raw},
                            {hosts,[key_or_name()]}]}]}</pre>

    <note>
      <p>Hook options specified in a configuration file overwrite any
        hard-coded hook options in the test suite.</p>
    </note>

    <marker id="Logging_example"/>
    <p><em>Logging Example:</em></p>
 
    <p>The following <c>ct_hooks</c> statement causes printing of Telnet
      traffic to separate logs for the connections <c>server1</c> and
      <c>server2</c>. Traffic for any other connections is logged in the
      default Telnet log.</p>

    <pre>
 suite() -&gt;
     [{ct_hooks,
       [{cth_conn_log, [{ct_telnet,[{hosts,[server1,server2]}]}]}]}].</pre>
 
    <p>As previously explained, this specification can also be provided by an
      entry like the following in a configuration file:</p>

    <pre>
 {ct_conn_log, [{ct_telnet,[{hosts,[server1,server2]}]}]}.</pre>

    <p>In this case the <c>ct_hooks</c> statement in the test suite can look
      as follows:</p>

    <pre>
 suite() -&gt;
     [{ct_hooks, [{cth_conn_log, []}]}].</pre>

          sending Telnet command sequences prefixed with character
          Interpret As Command (IAC). Option <c>{newline,string()}</c>
          can also be used if a different line end than "\n" is

        <p>Opens a Telnet connection to the specified target host.</p>

        <p>The target data must exist in a configuration file. The connection
          can be associated with <c>Name</c> and/or the returned <c>Handle</c>.
          To allocate a name for the target, use one of the following
          alternatives:</p>

        <list type="bulleted">
          <item><p><seealso marker="ct#require-2"><c>ct:require/2</c></seealso>
             in a test case</p></item>
          <item><p>A <c>require</c> statement in the suite information
            function (<c>suite/0</c>)</p></item>
          <item><p>A <c>require</c> statement in a test case information
            function</p></item>
        </list>

        <p>If you want the connection to be associated with <c>Handle</c> only
          (if you, for example, need to open multiple connections to a host),
          use <c>Key</c>, the configuration variable name, to specify the
          target. Notice that a connection without an associated target name
          can only be closed with the <c>Handle</c> value.</p>

        <p><c>TargetMod</c> is a module that exports the functions
          <c>connect(Ip, Port, KeepAlive, Extra)</c> and
          <c>get_prompt_regexp()</c> for the specified <c>TargetType</c>
          (for example, <c>unix_telnet</c>).</p>

        <p>By default, this function adds "\n" to the end of the
