'''Telnet''' is a common name for a '''remote login''' [[protocol]] in a [[communication network]]. It allows someone at a [[terminal]] on one system (usually a [[time-sharing]] system) to log into another system (again, usually a time-sharing system) as if they were using a terminal attached directly to the remote system.

It requires two pieces of software: an [[application]] (the [[client]]) which runs on the system where the [[user]] is, and a [[server]] (along with the necessary support from the [[operating system]]) on the remote computer.

It is almost always part of a [[protocol suite]] which includes other protocols which it uses to do its own job, e.g. a [[reliable byte stream]] protocol.
