Network Working Group Request for Comments: 858 Obsoletes: NIC 15392 TELNET SUPPRESS GO AHEAD OPTION

J. Postel J. Reynolds ISI May 1983

This RFC specifies a standard for the ARPA Internet community. Hosts on the ARPA Internet are expected to adopt and implement this standard. 1. Command Name and Code SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD 2. Command Meanings IAC WILL SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD The sender of this command requests permission to begin suppressing transmission of the TELNET GO AHEAD (GA) character when transmitting data characters, or the sender of this command confirms it will now begin suppressing transmission of GAs with transmitted data characters. IAC WON'T SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD The sender of this command demands to begin transmitting, or to continue transmitting, the GA character when transmitting data characters. IAC DO SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD The sender of this commannd requests that the sender of data start suppressing GA when transmitting data, or the sender of this command confirms that the sender of data is expected to suppress transmission of GAs. IAC DON'T SUPPRESSS-GO-AHEAD The sender of this command demands that the receiver of the command start or continue transmitting GAs when transmitting data. 3. Default WON'T SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD DON'T SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD Go aheads are transmitted. 3

4. Motivation for the Option While the NVT nominally follows a half duplex protocol complete with a GO AHEAD signal, there is no reason why a full duplex connection between a full duplex terminal and a host optimized to handle full duplex terminals should be burdened with the GO AHEAD signal. Therefore, it is desirable to have a TELNET option with which parties involved can agree that one or the other or both should suppress transmission of GO AHEADS. 5. Description of the Option When the SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD option is in effect on the connection between a sender of data and the receiver of the data, the sender need not transmit GAs. It seems suppress AHEAD is in both probable that the parties to the TELNET connection will GO AHEAD in both directions of the TELNET connection if GO suppressed at all; but, nonetheless, it must be suppressed directions independently.

With the SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD option in effect, the IAC GA command should be treated as a NOP if received, although IAC GA should not normally be sent in this mode. 6. Implementation Considerations As the SUPRESS-GO-AHEAD option is sort time mode, the sender of data which is attempt to actually transmit characters with minimal buffering) consistent with are in effect. of the opposite of a suppressing GO AHEADs as soon as possible any other agreements line at a should (i.e., which

In many TELNET implementations it will be desirable to couple the SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD option to the echo option so that when the echo option is in effect, the SUPPRESS-GO-AHEAD option is in effect simultaneously: both of these options will normally have to be in effect simultaneously to effect what is commonly understood to be character at a time echoing by the remote computer.
