Please Whitelist This Site?
I know everyone hates ads. But please understand that I am providing premium content for free that takes hundreds of hours of time to research and write. I don't want to go to a pay-only model like some sites, but when more and more people block ads, I end up working for free. And I have a family to support, just like you. :)
If you like The TCP/IP Guide, please consider the download version. It's priced very economically and you can read all of it in a convenient format without ads.
If you want to use this site for free, I'd be grateful if you could add the site to the whitelist for Adblock. To do so, just open the Adblock menu and select "Disable on tcpipguide.com". Or go to the Tools menu and select "Adblock Plus Preferences...". Then click "Add Filter..." at the bottom, and add this string: "@@||tcpipguide.com^$document". Then just click OK.
Thanks for your understanding!
Sincerely, Charles Kozierok

TCP/IP Interactive and Remote Application Protocols
When it comes to TCP/IP applications,
file
and message transfer applications such
as electronic
mail, FTP
and the World
Wide Web get the most attention, because
they are the ones used most often on modern internetworks. Another category
of TCP/IP application protocols that is less-well-known is the group
that allows users to interactively access and use other computers directly
over an internetwork, such as the public Internet. These applications
are not often employed by end-users today but are still importantboth
from a historical perspective, and because of their usefulness in certain
circumstances, especially to network administrators.
In this section, I provide a brief
description of the classical interactive and remote application
protocols used in TCP/IP. The first subsection describes the Telnet
Protocol, one of the earliest and most important application protocols
in TCP/IP, still used today both for remote device access and as the
basis of communication of many other protocols. The second describes
the Berkeley remote access family, often called the r commands
or protocols because their command names begin with that letter. Finally,
I provide a brief overview of the Internet Relay Chat (IRC) protocol,
the original interactive chat application of the Internet and one still
used widely today.
