My first post was truncated in delivery. The config on the 2511 would look something like: int loopback 0 ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 ip host r1 2001 1.1.1.1 ip host r2 2002 1.1.1.1 ip host r16 2016 1.1.1.1 line 0 16 no exec transport input all To connect to the first router type "r1" it should say connecting to host .... hit enter you should be at the prompt for the remote router to return to the terminal server hit "control+shift+6" then "x". >From the 2511 to again connect to the remote router hit "1" (for the first connection) "2" for the second connection, etc. >From the 2511 you can do a "show line" to see active connections. An asterisk beside the line means that it is in use. You can do a "clear line" to eliminate a connection.
