Secure Telnet connections
To secure Telnet connections with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) support,
follow these steps:
1.Using Digital Certificate Manager, configure the Telnet server on the
iSeries server to add a certificate to the Telnet server application.
2.In iSeries Navigator, expand your iSeries server --> Network -->
Servers --> TCP/IP.
3. Right-click Telnet, and select Properties to open the Telnet
Properties pages.
4. Go to the General page.
5. Select Secure only or Both Secure and non-secure.
6. Click OK to save changes.
Note: If the Telnet server is running when you change the level of
socket layer support, you must stop and restart the Telnet server.

You are correct. It does not perform encryption/decryption but, it
can be used to ensure the connection is using SSL.
Right ... so the question still remains, how do you do SSL TELNET
between System i's?
'course I may have gotten the whole question wrong. :)
