Secure Telnet Between i5's ?

[Kirk Goins <kgoins@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Background: I have a very larger health care organization that its 
network group has mandated no unsecured FTP or Telnet period, even 
within its private network. My client currently uses telnet between the 
i5s for among other things to manage his HA product. I guess a stop gap 
measure would be to setup Anynet or Enterprise Extenders and do passthru 
but that doesn't do what sis intended, which is to Encrypt data within 
the network.

I know I can setup the FTP Server for SSL and I can get iSeries Access 
or other clients to use SSL, but what about the i5 itself? I don't see a 
Secure Connection parm on Telnet like I do on FTP. What are my options 
to secure telnet between the i5's?

OH! and I have only 2 weeks to get this fully functional

Thanks
