Configure 2811 terminal server

[Bruce Summers]

alright,

first time i'm doing this...i've read some of the other posts and stepped through what i thought would be the config guide from cisco, but i guess i'm just not understanding...

During the step through, one of the steps is to configure line con 0 transport input all, but the only option for me is transport "output".  my line con config is as follows:

line con 0
session-timeout 20
no exec
transport preferred telnet
transport output all
line aux 0
line 0/3/0
transport input telnet
transport output telnet

I configured ip host switch1 2001 172.16.1.1

when i look at async 0/3/0, i see it is down / down

frankly, i'm not sure what i'm doing...i thought i would remote into the router, then telnet to the async interface...but, i'm not even sure how to do that even...ughghgh...

help...

thanks

Hi Bruce,

The guy on that post just had a cabling problem the configuration is correct so you can try to replicate it (hope not violating copyrights hehe)

I'm afraid I could use more than this document. After reading through I am even more confused and unable to get a single console working. Looks like I will be calling in a TAC case for assistance.
