STDs are stable identifiers for "Internet Standards." An STD may consist of a single RFC or a group of RFCs related to a specific protocol. The collection may become empty as the STD evolves.
RFC 854: STD 8: Telnet Protocol Specification
Internet Standard
- J. Postel
- J.K. Reynolds
- May 1983
- Legacy publication
Abstract
This is the specification of the Telnet protocol used for remote terminal access in the ARPA Internet. The purpose of the TELNET Protocol is to provide a fairly general, bi-directional, eight-bit byte oriented communications facility. Its primary goal is to allow a standard method of interfacing terminal devices and terminal-oriented processes to each other. It is envisioned that the protocol may also be used for terminal-terminal communication ("linking") and process-process communication (distributed computation). This RFC specifies a standard for the ARPA Internet community. Hosts on the ARPA Internet are expected to adopt and implement this standard. Obsoletes NIC 18639.
