If that's the case then the ethernet IP address won't be reachable. >I've assigned a loopback IP address (192.168.0.0/32 I think) and use that >instead ("router> telnet 192.168.0.0 2001") If you create aliases on the router you can then just use the router name for example ip host accessjn2 2002 192.168.7.4 ip host accessjn3 2003 192.168.7.4 ip host accessjn6 2006 192.168.7.4 Then just telnet accessjn2 Brian _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
