Net::Telnet allows you to make client connections to a TCP port
and do network I/O, especially to a port using the TELNET
protocol. Simple I/O methods such as print, get, and getline are
provided. More sophisticated interactive features are provided
because connecting to a TELNET port ultimately means communicating
with a program designed for human interaction. These interactive
features include the ability to specify a timeout and to wait for
patterns to appear in the input stream, such as the prompt from a
shell.
