Hi Rick,

I'm most grateful for your input. what i am trying to do is configure a reserve telnet to be able to go from my access server to any other router/switch in my home lap.

Despite, the line vty 0 16 or 1 4, i still could not make a reserve telnet back to any other device. The error message is as follows "Router1#r9

Translating "r9"

Trying r9 (201.201.1.1, 2009)...

% Destination unreachable; gateway or host down" even the systems are up and running.

Hope you can still help me further?

regards

According to what you have configured r9 is on the 9th async interface. Is there physically a 9th async interface? If so what is it connected to and what kind of cable connects them? It would also help to know what kind of router your access server is.

Hello Rick,

The access server is 2511 with octal cable going to the console ports of all other routers.

To make things simple, would you like to just lead me through the necessary process of getting things done, if at all i have not been following the right method?.

Regards

This link has some discussion and a very good example which should show you the way. Perhaps the most important thing (more important that it appears) is to configure no exec on the async lines.

[edit] looking back at your original post it apears that one issue is confusion about which lines are the async lines. Perhaps the output of show lines might help to clarify this.

Hello Rick,

Thanks once again your great help, though i am yet to get it done, only presented with another problem when configuring the line i.e it says "No physical hardware support for line 1" when i tried to configure the "line 1 16" with transport input all command.

I hope you can please help me further to round with this issue?.

Best Regards
