This moves me to the next question
Why cant it be done... if you can send infomation from a pc to a router
using a console port, why cant 2 routers talk back to back using the console
ports. and run routing protocols between then
The easy answer is " it cant be done" - but I would like to know what not.
Its funny that you say you have never heard this question before - as we had
a guy join here a few weeks ago and this was one of his first questions. - I
must admit I was baffled as well, and I had to say I didnt know, but I said,
I would find out and if it was not possible - why not.
Is there someone on the list who knows the answer. I have yet to hear an
explanation of why it is not possible, apart from the commands not being
there to configure it.
Kind regards.
Paul.

Hello,
Can someone help me with this,
Is it possible to connect 2 routers back to back using console ports alone.
Also under the console port, I can type
line con 0
transport output telnet
what is this for..?? or more specifically, what can I use this for.
Is it possible to run routing protocols over the console port in lab
environment.
Is there anyway I could configure the console port to do IP routing using a
virtual-template and apply
- Sorry for the dumb question, but if I don't ask, I will never find out.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards.
