Are you talking about U-0Boot or Linux here?

If you mean U-Boot, then you should understand  that  incoming  pings
are  unsupported  by  U-Boot,  and telnet like all other TCP/IP based
services are unimplemented, too.

If you talk about Linux, then you're off topic here.

What exactly makes you think this should work? Having a  closer  look
you will also find out that U-Boot does not reply to ssh requests nor
does  it work as a web server. Java support is pretty poor, too. Doom
isn't runnin either.

Don't expoect too much. This is a boot loader, not an OS.
