Differences between AUX ports?

mpy6673

Level 1

Folks,

The following config *does* work on a 2500 and a 2600,

and does *not* work on a 1721 nor a 3640. Same config,

same cable, same modem, same user, same phone line....

Goal: Dial out using the AUX interface connected to a modem.

- The modem is physically a usr_courier, but the line:

modem autoconfigure type usr_courier

does not break a router that works and does not make

a router that does not work go.

- On the 2600, the interface is async65

- On the 3640, the interface is async129

- On the 1721, the interface is async5

What am I missing here? Ideas welcomed!

I was expecting the AUX port to behave the same way

on every router....

Giedrius,

Thanks for your contribution.

I have tried several variations of this on a 1721, and got nowhere.

However, I found something interesting.

I tried to troubleshoot this issue on an old c3000 running the 2500 code (the nice part of doing this is that you can indeed rule out if the IOS is the problem or the hardware).

On the 3000, using the standard db25-RJ45 adapters, it does not work (exactly the same symptoms as the 1721). However, I used an RS232 signal breaker, and I found that by shorting the DCD (8) and DSR (6) pins on the router side, I got it to work.

Since there is no DCD signal in any RJ45 AUX port, I came to the unfortunate conclusion that some routers have the DCD and DSR signals internally shorted, and some other routers don't. Someone please prove me wrong?

Michel.
