As for the connection to the csu/dsu, assuming it has a serial conenctor designed for this purpose, you should be able to use a cisco rollover cable and a Modem adapter (the serial connector from the console kit with "modem" stamped in the plastic. As long as it keeps CD high (one of the pins in the serial connector, it should.), the connection should stay up all the time. If you need to reset it, then clear line x should cause it to bounce and come back up. I don't have any csu/dsu's laying around to test with, but I Slip-ped two 2501's together across the aux port's using the above config. I don't think it will apply to you, but the documentation says that Routing protocol updates are not transmitted across a slip link. Also, all traffic destined for the AUX or CON ports is process switched. -Ejay -----Original Message----- From: Patrick Ramsey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2002 11:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: slip/arp/proxy arp switch to csu [7:35413] Ok guys/gals/fellow listers, I've been doing some research on setting up a slip connection to a csu from a switch or router. a lot of the cisco TAC refers to the use of term servers for this but there are some documents on the site that talk about manualy connecting from a switch or router through the console port. Is this a sound method for establishing a slip connection you want to stay in place? Any comments? And does the console port then behave like a switch port? Will normal ethernet protocols go across? (arp for example) I'm having to do this without the use of a spare CSU and am just trying to get some prelim questions answered. thanks! -Patrick >>>>>>>>>>>>> Confidentiality Disclaimer <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< This email and any files transmitted with it may contain confidential and /or proprietary information in the possession of WellStar Health System, Inc.
