i am not telnetting anywhere on the net.  i would deinstall telnet
if it was an option in freebsd build.  hence, i can not ^[ and send
break.

i am sshing into the 2511 and then issuing the equivalent of

   telnet 127.0.0.1 line#

notice that, though this is telnet, it just goes over a serial
cable to the serial console of the device to which i wish to send
a break.

Jason Slagle <[email protected]> saying "ctrl-shift-6 b" is the
nearest i have heard.
