I am using a Lucent Portmaster PM25 for the management of my Cisco Routers
and switches in my home lab. I picked up a used unit on EBay for about $50
including shipping and the cables to use for connectivity (The Cisco Octo
cable that are used with the 2511 routers work fine with the Portmaster).

if you mean like a 2511? an access server to allow you to telnet into all
your routers and not keep switching the console cables around?
well you could buy a 2511 (or 2512 for token ring) to do the job, it has 16
ports. the problem with this is that you'll pay a premium on ebay for it. an

Yes. The 2511 can also be used. Though, you need an octal cable (8-async
lines) or two (up to 16 asyncs) for it to be useful. However, in a practice

Yes. The 2511 can also be used. Though, you need an octal cable (8-async
lines) or two (up to 16 asyncs) for it to be useful. However, in a practice
lab environment, I'm sure you won't be configuring more than 8 or 9 devices.
So a 2509-RJ is much more practical at least for me.

I take it that either the 2509 or 2511 will work for me.

I'm using a Cisco 2509-RJ. You can control up to 8 devices on it's async
ports (9 if you'll be using the AUX port also). As the async prots are
already RJ-45, you can connect Cisco's console cable directly.

I should warn you about my last response regarding the 'Digi portserver', I
had to make my own custom cables though, the regular cisco rollover doesn't
work. so if you're not used to crimping your own cables, I wouldn't go with
the portserver.
