Solved: Shorcut command on router?

Andy White · ‎06-16-2010

Hello,

When I'm on our main router I might need to telnet to a number of routers from that during that session, rather than me typing "telnet 192.168.1.1" etc etc is there a way I can craete a short cut so I might just type "r1" for router 1 and it telnets to the router? I guess I could use the "ip host" option.

You could create this alias

config t

alias exec r1 telnet 192.168.1.1

that should work.

Hi,

To define a static host name-to-address mapping in the host cache, use the ip host global configuration command. To remove the name-to-address mapping, use the no form of this command.

ip host name [tcp-port-number] address1 [address2...address8]

Config# ip host ROUTER_NAME INT_Address

Example: ip host lab-a 192.168.5.1

or Config# ip host RTR_NAME INT_ADD1 INT_ADD2 INT_ADD3

Example: ip host lab-a 192.168.5.1 205.23.4.2 199.2.3.2 - (for e0, s0, s1)

Hope to Help !!
