500-CS...HELP!! [7:2414]
Ok GUYS n GALS, I got a simple dilemma, but I can't seem to get the solution. I know its staring me in the face! :) I bought a 500-CS off ebay and I config with TRANS IN ALL, but it doesn't take so I use TRANS IN TELNET and TRANS OUT TELNET on the console of my test router and on the async line I have the cable plugged to and use IP ADD 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 as a loopback int. When I try a Reverse Telnet, it opens, but I get a blank screen and NO CURSOR for my router? WHAT GIVES? Thanks, Rob H.

Re: 500-CS...HELP!! [7:2414]
Hmm. I have a CS500 as well. Looking at my config and comparing to the info you have provided, I have some suggestions. Note that you may have already done this - as I cant see ur config or every command you've entered. 1. Are you using (ex.)'telnet 1.1.1.1 2001' to rev telnet to the 0 line? Note that the CS500 ports are from labeled 0-15 where as their corresponding tty lines are 1-16. 2. Cabling problem? If you are connecting to a 2500 series, you will only need a std rollover cable between the two. 3. Use 'stopbits 1' for your tty lines. Default is not 1, 1.5 I think? Probably wont help the immediate problem though... -Brad [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: To: Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2001 8:47 PM Subject: 500-CS...HELP!!

It is a best practice to do in general and you will need to do this whenever you submit anything to TAC. Cisco's TAC developed a macro that will list a series of troubleshooting friendly commands such as "show run", "show start", "show interfaces", etc. This command will also strip out all incriminating information, such as passwords. The command is "show tech". Unfortunately, your version of IOS does not support this command. > ! > interface Ethernet 0 > no ip address > shutdown > no lat enabled > no mop enabled > ! > interface Loopback 0 > ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 As a good practice, you may want to put a different (non- publicly routable) IP address here. Try something from the RFC 1918 series, such as 192.168.254.254 /32 . There is no other reason than it is a good practice. Besides, if you ever needed to get to the host on the Internet that owns IP addr 1.1.1.1, you will only go as far as your loopback address:-) > ! > ip name-server 255.255.255.255 > ip host R1 2003 1.1.1.1 Is the host table entry above the one you are trying to use? If so, does it correspond to the port on the CS-500 that you have R1 plugged into? Based upon the layout of my CS-516, I would say that if you attempted to type "R1" at the term server command line, router R1 better be plugged into the 3rd port. > snmp-server community > ! > ! > line vty 0 4 > login > > line con 0 > transport input > transport output Why don't you just set the console line to "transport input all"? > line 1 > no exec > monitor > transport input telnet > transport output telnet If you notice above and below, you will see the command, "no exec". This is what is precluding you from doing anything useful on this box. With "no exec" enabled, you will not get executive mode at the line. At this point, it might just be easier to get rid of the "no exec" from each of the lines. Also, if you set "transport input all" and "transport output all", you will see the other lines on transport disappear as well. In order to fix this problem, you will need to go to line configration mode for each line and type, "exec".

Re: 500-CS...HELP!! [7:2414]......here is my 500-CS config [7:2472]
I don't think your problem has anything to do with the "no exec" command in your config. I also use the "no exec" command for my async ports and it works great. I think the problem lies within these commands. ip host R1 2003 1.1.1.1 line 1 no exec monitor transport input telnet transport output telnet Notice that the port you specified was 2003. Port 2003 maps to line 3, not line 1. You don't have anything configured for line 3, so the reverse telnet session will not work for it. I would either try changing the port to 2001 or change the "line 1" command to "line 1 3" Let me know if this does any good.

**WARNING - THE VERBOSITY BIT IS SET - THIS MESSAGE IS DISCARD ELIGIBLE IF YOUR BUFFERS ARE FULL** Hi, I think there may be a degree of misunderstanding about the use of the no exec command. If you have seen this command used in an access server that provides dialin access to corporate users, or you have configured an access server for a typical ISP, that is probably an appropriate place for this command. When you place no exec under a given line, it will preclude any use of an executive process (user or privileged). Dont take my word on it. Lets all do a little test on our home routers. First, do not do this test in a production network, period. Second, it you are a little weak on the IOS, you may want to brush up on your password recovery procedures; you will need it later. Here goes. I will show you three different ways to test this. First, go to the console port of your router **DO NOT TELNET IN** Next, configure your router as follows: router# router(config)# router(config)#lin vty 0 4 router(config-line)#no exec router(config-line)#exit router(config)#int loopback 77 router(config-int)#ip add 1.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 router(config-int)#end router# Now attempt to telnet into your own router using any accepted telnet command, such as: router#telnet 1.0.0.1 or, router#connect 1.0.0.1 or, router#1.0.0.1 You should get the following output: 2503#telnet 1.0.0.1 Trying 1.0.0.1 ... Open [Connection to 1.0.0.1 closed by foreign host] The connection will not open. Since we did not have any access class commands applied, the only other explanation is that a vty line is dedicated for one purpose, namely to run an executive process. You can either telnet into the vty to do user exec commands, or privileged exec commands. When the line has been restricted so that no exec is in place, then the vty line is effectively shut down and no connection is allowed. Remove the "no exec" command under the vty lines and reattempt it. You will note it works. Lets try it a second way. This time, we will implement the following commands on any cisco router that has both an AUX port and a console line. We will change the AUX port into a line configuration and we will issue the no exec command on the AUX line. Before you start, make sure your configuration is clear under the AUX line and console lines. It should similar to this: line con 0 transport input all line aux 0 transport input all Go ahead and verify you get a command prompt in both AUX and console lines. Verify you have interactivity by starting a ping to 1.0.0.1 on each (physically plug into both ports). Then execute the following additional commands while plugged into the AUX line: router#conf t router(config)#lin aux 0 router(config-line)#no exec router(config-line)#end router# Try a ping again. It will work. Now save your configuration with the following command and execute a reload while still plugged into the AUX line: router#copy run start router#reload Proceed with reload? [confirm]y 07:35:36: %SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested The last line is the last entry you will see. When the router reboots, you will not be able to see any output. You may be asking yourself why the command did not take place immediately as most commands do. It did take place immediately however, you were still on a connected line. Once the connection is severed (via a reload), then the AUX line will have no exec process when the system reboots. This can be further verified once the system boots by attempting to get a router prompt from the AUX line. When you are unsuccessful, plug into the console line and go into line configuration mode and restore the exec process with the following commands: router#conf t router(config)#lin aux 0 router(config-line)#exec router(config-line)#end router# Log back into the AUX line and verify it now works properly. On some routers you may have to reboot to get this to take effect. The final check on this is to do the same test with the console line. WARNING - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DO THIS UNLESS YOU ARE VERY FAMILIAR WITH PASSWORD RECOVERY!!! Plug into the console line and type the following: router#conf t router(config)#lin con 0 router(config-line)#no exec router(config-line)#end router# Run the same test and verify all functionality is still there, e.g. execute a ping and get a response. Everything should work just fine. Save your config and do a reload as before: router#copy run start router#reload Proceed with reload? [confirm]y 07:35:36: %SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested This time you are going to notice something really strange and different. You will note that you can watch the router reload and go through its POST and execute its startup-config. The only problem is that you cannot tell the router to do anything because you guessed it, you have no exec on the console line. You will see output go by one the screen, but you cannot

I think the "no exec" issue may be a work around for other behaviour on async lines. Specifically for using async lines as a terminal server. I don't know how well the normal octopus cables are insulated but I have noticed lots of noise on these lines. The noise on these lines seem to be able to trigger an exec session which prevents the line from being opened until it is cleared. Using "no exec" seems to prevent this from happening but you are still able to connect. Now I'm talking "through the router out the line connection", not "in the line out the router connection" which it seems you are talking about. "Most" times when we're talking about reverse telent we're talking about connecting a line from the "server" to the console port of another router. In this case, the remote router is not initiating a call down the line, it is accepting a call. We talk about this so much it seems as it is just about the first thing you have to do in the CCIE lab. (so I'm told - haven't been there yet but I have books that say this) I grant that if you tried to make a call into the line with "no exec", you probably won't get too far. But in most of the cases we are talking about going the other way. The "no exec" keeps the line down (available) until we really want it. On our main terminal server at work - a 2611 we have the following line: line 33 48 no exec Now our purpose is to connect to the terminal server to access the lab and to access the console ports of the other routers in the lab pod. When I telnet to w.x.y.z 2033 I get connected to the router at the end of line 33. (which is line 1 on the cable) When on the terminal server console I telnet to port 2033 on the loopback I get to the same place. So, you are correct in what you say - but I think the most often the problem being addressed is that the line is reported as in use and the user isn't the one using it. I have yet to see anyone suggest using "no exec" on a vty or console line so that doesn't seem to fit into the discussion. My slant - others may vary.

Actually, it is you who are correct. While my discussion and the resulting tests were good for intellectual debate, they did little to further answering the problem correctly. You have stated correctly that "no exec" will work exactly as advertised for *reverse* telnet connections only. Since my CS516 uses a combination of forward and reverse connections, it was not practical for me to use this methodology. Oh well, that's what you get for making a post late at night when you are tired :-) The two replies that stated the reverse connection was made to the wrong line are likely the root of the original problem. v/r, Paul Werner > So, you are correct in what you say - but I think the most often the > problem > being addressed is that the line is reported as in use and the user > isn't > the one using it Get your own "800" number Voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=2591&t=2591 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
