Telnet is a network protocol that gives users a UNsecure way to access a computer over a network.
Default port: 23
23/tcp open telnet
nc -vn <IP> 23
All the interesting enumeration can be performed by nmap:
nmap -n -sV -Pn --script "*telnet* and safe" -p 23 <IP>
The script
telnet-ntlm-info.nse will obtain NTLM info (Windows versions).In the TELNET Protocol are various "options" that will be sanctioned and may be used with the "DO, DON'T, WILL, WON'T" structure to allow a user and server to agree to use a more elaborate (or perhaps just different) set of conventions for their TELNET connection. Such options could include changing the character set, the echo mode, etc. (From the telnet RFC)
I know it is possible to enumerate this options but I don't know how, so let me know if know how.
