Hi,
What about adding telnet support to Unimus?
Some of example network switch are not supporting ssh.

Hi,
Telnet support is not currently planned.
This is because:
1) security issues of telnet
2) implementation would require a lot of time, and the benefits are very small (only minimal amount of devices/people would use it)
So since the usefulness/development-cost ratio is not favourable, this feature is currently not planned.
If there is enough requests to support Telnet, I will gladly reconsider this in the future.

Just an update on this:
I was initially against this, but we have had quite a few requests.
So telnet support is now officially a go, but it will take some time to implement.
I would guess end of Q1 2017

Sure, after I track down and load SSH firmware on a couple devices that were otherwise already at their latest....
