Excuse me i just founded similar thread on the list which says: SRA is a login sequence that encrypts the password (something that regular telnet doesn't do). It's only is activated if the other end advertises itself as a telnet server. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2010-August/220796.html
the second part of my question now seems to be off-list.. Sorry for sending repeated and off-list question before enough googling..
