A quick question in regard to "reverse telnet".
I'm using a 2511 as a terminal server, and I've
defined some host names, pointing to a loopback
ip address and a line number on the router, so
that I can reverse telent to other devices
console ports.
Here is my question, if I TELNET to the 2511, I
am not able to reverse telnet out to the other
deviceds using only the "hostname", such as
"router1", for example.
Instead, I have to type "telnet router1" to get
it to work.
However, when I'm directly connected to the 2511
console port, I can reverse telnet to the other
devices just using the "hostname", such as
"router1".
Is this the way it is suppossed to work? That to
be able to only use the hostname to initiate a
reverse telnet session, you have to be directly
connected to the console port of the 2511?
Any ideas would be appreicated.
Thanks!
Eric
