I think once you have used one of your terminal server lines to connect to a
router, like RT1, then you can just get back in but typing 1. A friend
suggested to me that you do the following when you first get into the
terminal server.
log into every router in order using ctrl shift 6 x to get out. Once you do
that, you should be able to get in by using the line number. So you would
use 3 instead of RT3.

Subject: Lab bushwhacks - terminal server
OK, I think I am starting to get a feel for terminal server gotcha's. And
based solely on my experience here at home, and never having been in the Lab
itself, but trying to anticipate the kinds of things that can happen during
troubleshooting.....
It seems that the asynch lines can get "hung" for whatever reason. I am
finding that even after fooling around doing things like changing the flow
control that often I can still get into most of my routers. Occasionally, I
will get a "connection refused" from one or two of them.
This of course could be disastrous if it were to happen during any part of
the lab prior to troubleshooting. It could also be one way a crafty Lab
Proctor might try to bushwhack someone. Screw with the terminal server
settings and let the unprepared candidate waste his three hours getting the
TS to connect!
Some combination of clear tty line X or clear line X seems to do the trick.
Never hurts to do both.
