PA1—Send the PA1 keystroke to a host

Purpose

Use the PA1 subcommand to send a PA1 keystroke to the remote session in transparent mode.


>>-Pa1---------------------------------------------------------><

There are no parameters for this subcommand.

The PA1 subcommand operates only in transparent mode. This subcommand replaces the PA1 attention key on the remote host.
When there are nested TELNET sessions, use the PA1 key to enter a TELNET subcommand in the first open TELNET session. To enter a TELNET subcommand in the second open TELNET session, send a PA1 subcommand from the first session.
You would normally interrupt a PING command by pressing PA1. However, in a transparent mode TELNET session, this key is used to invoke a TELNET subcommand. You would issue a PA1 subcommand to interrupt the PING command instead.
