I will not say that this is the best idea, but I have been switching
from the console port of one router to another and back as part of setup
or trouble shooting for 3 years and have never had a problem. You will
stay logged into each router (until they time out). You need to
remember to always go back to each router when you are finished with
your testing and log out or the next one plugging into the console port
will have the same access you left the port with.
