Hi, >From Routing 2.0 & Remote 2.0 exam point of view, the reverse telnet is defined as the the one used for configuring the modems from the router. You open the telnet session with the modem-connected right from the router. You may refer this in the Cisco press for Bcran 2.0 book edited by 'Catherine Paquet'.
