How do I PING and TELNET using a specific port?

The PING was not mentioned to test the port, but to test that the request could get through the route to the destination and that packets were consistently reaching their destination [minimal loss], and how timely [huge lag could be problematic for timeouts].


I just posted the device description in another message.


And from that, with the IBM i TELNET client [I am too lazy to look up how using the system-supplied TELNET on any other clients; I do not recall in Win nor typical *nix, but "telnet ?" on this Mac says: "usage: telnet [-l user] [-a] [-s src_addr] host-name [port]"], try the following:

   ? STRTCPTELN RMTSYS(*INETADR) ??INTNETADR('192.168.150.107')
          ??PORT(1041)

Optionally also review and code what seems appropriate for any "ASCII" parameters presented after F10=Additional Parameters.


In my mind, the big question is how to emulate the "Generic / Text
Only" print driver that Window uses?


  That was what the article at the link was supposed to help with.
