           Summary: telnet(1) regression or incompatibility in recent

Traffic dumps

I have recently upgraded a few systems running 12.2-STABLE and after upgrad=
ing
one by one I am losing the ability to connect with some Alcatel-Lucent swit=
ches
(Omniswitch 63xx and 64xx models). Connection with the host seems to be
established, but I am not able to get the login prompt:
telnet 172.x.x.x
Trying 172.x.x.x...
Connected to 172.x.x.x.
Escape character is '^]'.

^]
This state last forever and the session can be only terminated.

Telneting to other devices, from other vendors or even some different ALU
switches, still goes fine.

Since I was upgrading systems one by one and losing connectivity, I took so=
me
tcpdumps to document this oddity.

Perhaps the culprit is TCP stack or its settings, which are the same on all
machines:

net.inet.tcp.ecn.enable=3D1
net.inet.tcp.nolocaltimewait=3D1
net.inet.tcp.mssdflt=3D1448
net.inet.tcp.syncache.rexmtlimit=3D1=20
net.inet.tcp.drop_synfin=3D1
net.inet.tcp.rfc6675_pipe=3D1
net.inet.tcp.abc_l_var=3D44
net.inet.tcp.functions_default=3Drack
net.inet.tcp.cc.algorithm=3Dhtcp
net.inet.tcp.cc.htcp.rtt_scaling=3D1
net.inet.tcp.cc.htcp.adaptive_backoff=3D1
net.inet.tcp.fastopen.server_enable=3D1

When the system is booted from kernel.old telnet from new userland and above
TCP stack settings is able to connect again.
