# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

**telnet-proxy** <**remote address**> <**remote port**> <**local port**>

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

**telnet-proxy** creates a single-connection proxy listening on *local port* which forwards connections to *remote address* on port *remote port*. All TELNET commands will be logged to **stdout** for debugging purposes.

Only a single active connection is allowed at any given time. However, after a client has disconnected, another client may connect through the proxy.

**telnet-proxy** is capable of transparently decoding and reencoding streams compressed with MCCP2. It also includes specialized decoders and debug output for NEW-ENVIRON, TTYPE, ZMP, and MSSP subnegotiation commands.
