RE: CCIE home equipment setup

Would suggest purchasing a terminal server such as a 2511. You can then
telnet or console into the terminal server and from there you can reverse
telnet to each router via their console port (which is connected to the
terminal server via an octopus cable).

Then configure the terminal server with a loopback address and reference
that loopback address in your alias statements. If your loopback was
10.1.1.1 then your alias statements for router 1 would be

Ip host router1 2001 10.1.1.1(where 2001 is line 1 and 2002 is line 2, etc).

You could use local authentication for aaa
aaa new-model
aaa authentication login default local
aaa authentication login vty local
aaa authorization exec default local
aaa authorization commands 1 default local
aaa authorization commands 15 default local

Then under line vty 0 4 you could enter the following for example:

 exec-timeout 60 0
 timeout login response 20
 password 7 password
 login authentication local
 

Hope that helps,

Ian

Hi all,

I'd like to setup my home lab with each telnet session will be forward to
each console port on my router just like some of rack rental places have.
Say, telnet router1 will be forward to router1 console port instead of
physically moves my console cable.

Please reply with equipment requirement and some example configuration.

Thanks in advance.

Dustin
