Reverse telnet to other manufacturers devices

[gbbromley]

As subject:

Can anyone suggest a good site or supplier (prefer UK or US), that understands the necessary cabling required (DB9/DB25 connector clocks really) to connect Nokia, SUN and Linux based systems to Cisco routers for remote console management.

Cheers,

First of all you need to know what kind of cable and connector need towards the devices that you want to console into.

Based on that if you want to use the cisco rotuer ro consoled into the devices, here is the cable guide from cisco which has part numbers too if you want to order.

Now here is the url which will help you how to configure the router for console access to SUN boxes.
