NAME
       mactelnet - A tool for telneting via MAC addresses

SYNOPSIS
       mactelnet [options] <MAC-Address|hostname>

DESCRIPTION
       This  tool  enables you to telnet other RouterOS or MAC-Telnetd enabled devices. You can connect to either a hostname or a MAC address.	If
       specified, the hostname (identity) will be looked up via MNDP discovery.

OPTIONS
       These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax.  A summary of options is included below.

       -n     Do not use broadcast packets. A tad less insecure but requires root privileges.  This means that	ethernet  packets  will  have  the
	      specified mac-address as the packet destination, instead of using the ethernet broadcast address.

       -t     Amount  of  seconds  to wait for a response on each interface. If you have several network interfaces, this is the timeout value per
	      interface.

       -u     Specify username. Without this option, you will need to enter the username in a interactive prompt.

       -p     Specify password. Without this option, you will need to enter the password in a interactive prompt.

       -h     Show summary of options.

       -v     Show version of program.
