I haven't used this, but it sounds like it is used to extend the access-server which has usernames, etc on it to another remote location for example. So a user can dial into a router locally and the router builds a tunnel/VPN-like connection and passes the dial-up users requests to the access-server so they get the same IP info, etc as they were dialed into the access-server itself.
It is confusing however, because it sounds like the user dials in and types "tunnel (name)" at the CLI to establish this. Probably one of those obsure features that no one really used so not much documentation on it. Hmm... going to have to add this to my list-of-things to try. --- Eric Waguespack wrote: > you enable it on the traget with > > router_a(config)#ip tcp async-mobility server > > then activate it from another router: > > router_b#tunnel router_a > > it acts just like a telnet session, only slower, and > over port 57 > > what is this for? > > i am guessing that this is legacy or simply not used > much due to the lack of helpfull documentation > related > to it on cco.. the link is: > > http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios121/121cgcr/dialts_c/dtsprt4/dcdasppp.htm > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
