configuring remote access via AUX port in AS5350

o.hassairi · ‎02-21-2003

hello

can i configure remote access via PSTN using the AUX port of the AS5350?

if yes so how can i guess the number of the async interface ?

Router(config)#interface async ?

<0-7> Async interface number

thxs

Yes, we can connect modem on aux port of as5350 for remote access. Pls refer to:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/471/mod-aux-exec.html

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/701/6.html

Show line should tell you the line number to use corresponding to the Aux port...on as5350 it's line 1.

Thanks, Mak.

hello

thx for your reply.

i don't have a problem to guess line number , my prob is i can't guess the async interface number.

do u think i can make remote access via aux port (dedicated not interactive) without configuring async interface.?

makchitale · ‎02-22-2003

The async interface number matches the line number, so on the as5350 the aux port will correspond to "interface asyn1".

Suppose we have a NP108 DFC in slot 1, then the async interfaces will be:

int asyn 1/00

int asyn1/01 & so on.

AS5350-1#sh line

Tty Typ Tx/Rx A Modem Roty AccO AccI Uses Noise Overruns Int

sh run

!

interface Async1

no ip address

!

interface Async1/00

no ip address

!

interface Async1/01

no ip address

If you need a ppp call on the aux port then yes will need an async interface configured.

Thanks, Mak.

hello

when i use:

router(config)#interaface async 1

it returns "incomplete command%"

the router is waiting for "/ " after the "1" !!!!

however when i make sho line, it returns as u said:

* 0 CTY - - - - - 0 0 0/0 -

1 AUX 9600/9600 - - - - - 0 0 0/0 -

2 VTY - - - - - 5 0 0/0 -

3 VTY - - - - - 6 0 0/0 -

4 VTY - - - - - 0 0 0/0 -

5 VTY - - - - - 0 0 0/0 -

6 VTY - - - - - 0 0 0/0 -

is it a bug from this software version ?

Please send the following outputs, sh ver / sh chassis slot.

I just tried it out in my lab & it worked fine.

Thanks, Mak.

Yes, I just tried it out in my lab here & see the problem with 12.1(5)XM8, this is a software bug.

Upgrading to 12.2(2)XB10 should be fine .

Thanks, Mak.

thank you Mak for your help. i really appreciate it ;-)
