      Note:<br>
      Only if &lt;telnet flag&gt; is on and &lt;TCP port#&gt; is 23,
      Tera Term starts spontaneously sending telnet commands to the host
      for the option negotiation when the TCP/IP connection is established.
      In any cases, Tera Term can respond to telnet commands sent by the host.
