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). Y

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 alternat

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. Message Posted

I take it that either the 2509 or 2511 will work for me. -Original Message- From: Orlando Palomar Jr CCIE#11206 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 28, 2003 6:13 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Console management [7:66405] I'm using a Cisco 2509-RJ. You can contr

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. Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=66414&t=66405 ---

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. scott ""Kazan, Naim"" wrote in message news:[EMAIL P
