Release IP Address Use with Translate Command

[LIONEL GRIFFITH]

Looking for assistance with translate command. I've assigned an IP address to a translate command - translate tcp 32.83.178.18 port 5557 autocommand "telnet 128.212.96.30 23", removed the translate command and then try to reuse the IP Address in another translate command on the same router. The router generate a message " connot use IP Address, either in use or currently not a connected subnet. How do I free up this IP Address for reuse with the configuration.

I tried this. Adding translate (yours), removing, adding again (the same and different) and did not have problems. Can you send your translate commands your trying and the output. Below is my test.

3600-2#show translate

Translate From: TCP 32.83.178.18 Port 5557

To: AUTOCOMMAND "telnet 128.212.96.30 23"

0/0 users active, 0 peak, 0 total, 0 failures

3600-2#conf t

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

3600-2(config)#no translate tcp 32.83.178.18 port 5557 autocommand "telnet 128$

3600-2(config)#

3600-2#sh translate

3600-2#conf t

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

3600-2(config)#$78.18 port 5557 autocommand "telnet 128.212.96.30 23"

3600-2(config)#

3600-2#

1d07h: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console

3600-2#sh translate

Translate From: TCP 32.83.178.18 Port 5557

To: AUTOCOMMAND "telnet 128.212.96.30 23"

0/0 users active, 0 peak, 0 total, 0 failures

Also able to remote the translate and add using different port.

3600-2#show translate

Translate From: TCP 32.83.178.18 Port 5558

To: AUTOCOMMAND "telnet 128.212.96.30 23"

0/0 users active, 0 peak, 0 total, 0 failures

Hope this helps you,
