    Normally telnet listens to the port no 23(telnet port). Is there any way to change this default port or change the port by giving a command in telnet? i want to change the port to port no 21(ftp) or 8080(http proxy).

    Common communication ports

    TCP port 23 is reserved for Telnet client and server communication. By default, most Telnet clients initiate communication on port 23, and most Telnet servers listen on port 23 for connection requests. You can change the default port assignments with some Telnet client and server software, such as Windows Server 2003 Telnet Client and Server, but port 23 is the universally accepted port for Telnet communication.
