The iWay Telnet extension is used to remotely access the iSM (iWay Service Manager) command line console through a Telnet session. A Telnet client session can connect to any iSM instance running in the foreground or the background.

Note: Access to the command line console cannot be performed locally when the iSM instance is running in the background, for example, a Windows service.

For more information on configuring and using the Telnet listener, see the iWay Service Manager Extensions User's Guide.
