I'm a little confused regarding the logic of line console commands.
For example:
line con 0
transport output none
I understand this command prevents you from telnetting from the router
and also prevents you from doing DNS lookups while consoled in, I just
don't understand the logic of it.
When you log into router1 via console, and initate a telnet to
router2, the telnet traffic is not going out of the console of
router1, rather it is using its ethernet or serial interface etc. to
establish the telnet session to router2.
The same thing applies with DNS lookups, you are not doing a DNS query
out your console interface so why would you tell your console not to
output this traffic?
