I'm currently building a Java application which will connect to a switch using Telnet or SSH. I'm currently using the JSch for the SSH connection, but I read in Stack Overflow question SSH and Telnet library for java that JSch also supports Telnet.
Is this correct? And if so, could some one provide a small example?
The JSch is an SSH library.
Quoting the JSch web page:
JSch is a pure Java implementation of SSH2.
No mention on Telnet.
Also, there's no mention of the "telnet" or "23" in the JSch source code.
The only classes that connect anywhere (= use Socket
Java class) are Session
(SSH), Proxy*
and ChannelForwardedTCPIP
(port forwarding) and ChannelX11
.
