Installing Telnet Client on Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2012

Solution

Open a command prompt window. Click Start, type cmd in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
Type the following command:

pkgmgr /iu:"TelnetClient"
If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
When the command prompt appears again, the installation is complete.

To test connection to a specific server, for the example we will use a connection to an Oracle Server named OracleProduction on Port 1521, type the following command:

telnet OracleProduction 1521

If the connection is successful, you will get a blank screen. Otherwise, an error message will be displayed stating that a connection cannot be made to the server name provided.
