Plain shell scripts aren't good at controlling dialogs over socket
connections. I hesitate to say they cannot do it, since there are people
here more skilled in shell scripting than I, but doing it directly won't be
trivial.
I'd do it one of these ways:
1. Write it in perl, which has a Telnet module
2. Use the "Expect" package from a shell script; this manages
telnet-like dialogs.
