Description

To ensure clarity around the Telnet options supported by our client, we need to document those options that we have decided not to support. Certain Telnet options from the server either do not align with our architecture or are unnecessary for our use case. For future reference and to guide development, this issue will document these unsupported options and the rationale behind each decision.

Additionally, there are Telnet options that the client itself must actively enable. We should review these options and decide which ones, if any, we want to activate. This review could be informed by examining existing Telnet clients and the options they typically send to the server.

Tasks

  1. Review all Telnet options provided by the server.
  2. Identify options that we cannot or do not wish to support, along with an explanation for each.
  3. Document any options the client should actively enable and evaluate their necessity.
  4. Create a documentation section listing these unsupported options, including:
    1. Option name/ID
    2. Description of the option's purpose
    3. Reason for lack of support (e.g., architectural incompatibility, lack of necessity, or alternative approach)
