Re: Question? [7:61716]
I have 2 thoughts on this. The first is that on my test rack; where I'm reverse telnetting into the console ports; If I power cycle certain models of router my telnet session is dropped. (MC3810, and 3620 that I'm aware of.) I can only assume that this is teh same thing that happening to the modem. The second, also on my home rack, but I've used these in production environments, are X-10 PLC appliance modules (also available by many other manufacturers) . which can Physically power cycle devices remotely. I've found these type devices to be a life saver for remote offices, or co-located servers where you need to power cycle a server and no one is available to push a button for you. The X-10 Boxes are reasonably reliable, and I haven't had too many problems with them over the years. But there are better more expensive devices available for critical applications.

RE: Question? [7:61716]
It is possible to do a password recovery by a modem connection to the console port. The same conditions apply as when you perform this procedure locally at the router. When you perform a router password recovery, you have to physically power cycle the router... The only way to do this if you do not already have the enable password is to have someone physically at the router. The "reload" command only works when you have entered enable mode on the router. The answer is that if you do not have the router passwords for the router and want to perform password recovery, someone needs to power cycle the router, though the person performing the IOS password recovery procedure can be remote via a modem through the console port. -Original Message- From: Charles D Hammonds [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 24, 2003 12:45 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Question?

RE: Question? [7:61716]
I have done this several times and never experienced the issue below. As long as you are on the console port this should not be an issue. I would be curious to know what type of modem you are using and dip switch settings. I generally use US robotics. -Original Message- From: Charles D Hammonds [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 24, 2003 12:45 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Question?

RE: Question? [7:61716]
You should be fine. Just make sure you are on the console port. Also, verify the break sequence for your terminal emulation software. -Original Message- From: Gonzalez, Edwin R Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2003 4:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Question?

Depends on what you mean by dialup? If you can get to enable mode you can restart the router. Just type 'reload'. uh don't forget to do a wri mem (copy run start).

Question? [7:61716]
Is it possible to reload a router over dial up to change the password or do I have to be physically at the router?
