I will not say that this is the best idea, but I have been switching
from the console port of one router to another and back as part of setup
or trouble shooting for 3 years and have never had a problem. You will
stay logged into each router (until they time out). You need to

You need to look at the 2509/2511 series access
servers. Using an Octal cable you can go from the
Asynch interface on the back of the 2509 to upto 8

Aquaint also (inadvertently) received an 'octopus'
cable,
which looks like a wide-scsi connector on one end, and
DB25 connectors on the others. IOW, it'd be real

more adaptors to get to the RJ45 console connects...

$790, which is much cheaper than a 2509. It is Token

work just the same.
