I have been fighting with the performance of my terminal server for a few
weeks now. It works, and I have been using it, but like I said I have been
fighting with it. It seems to send characters to other ports when I haven't
initiated a connection to that port. The way I can tell this is when I get
onto that port it is responding to characters entered even though I haven't
entered anything. This is quite peculiar. I have looked at many books to see
if I am doing something wrong and the only indication was in Bruce Caslow's
book saying if your terminal server incorrectly shows active connections on
lines that don't have any connections established the command "modem host"
on the line config will fix this. Well this didn't fix mine for s*#@. I
finally figured out the way to fix mine was to add "modem inout" boom it
works like a charm. I am running 12.0.8 on this 2511. Maybe this is
something everyone already knew, but I didn't and maybe it will save someone
else some pain.
config t
ip host r1 10.0.0.1 2001
int loopback 0
ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
exit
line 1 8
transport input all
modem inout
exec-timeout 0 0
other routers assure the exec-timeout is set to 0 0 on the console.
