Solved: Telnet using source IP address

snarayanaraju · ‎08-17-2009

Dear Experts,

Is there any way I can TELNET using the source IP address. I am aware of the

command

telnet 192.168.1.1 /source-interface fastethernet 0

But Here in this command I am able to specify only the Interface and not the

IP Address. Why i raised this point is, I am trying to TELNET a remote host

using my secondary IP address of the Interface.

Thanks in advance

I am not aware of any way in IOS to telnet and to source the telnet packets from a secondary address. When an IOS router generates a packet (including generating a telnet packet) the default is to use the primary address as the source and I am not aware of any way to change this behavior.
