Telnet With Encryption

[Neelima Adusumilli]

Hi!
	When I'm running telnet with -ax option it is giving the following 
Warning

telnet -ax <ip-address>
telnet: Warning: -x ignored, no ENCRYPT support.
Trying <ip-address>...
Connected to <ip-address>
Escape character is '^]'.
Password for neelima:

Do I have to give any options while compiling to enable encryption in 
telnet?
I'm using AES for encryption, is it that AES encryption is not supported 
in telnet??
