I thought the modem goes into the aux.  That's the way I have seen them.  I
would like to hear more about this as well.

Subject: Quick Survey: Con or Aux?


Today I got into a discussion about the appropriate place to connect a
router for remote management of routers.  If you plug it into a console
port, you have the ability to reset the router and recover the password.
However, if you get disconnected, you leave a session open, causing a
security problem.  Although you can use exec-timeout, it still can make it
difficult to reconnect to it if you lose a connection.

So, I'm curious...what is everyone's opinion on the best place to plug a
modem in for remote management?  The console port or the AUX port?
