hi, he's right. you connect it to a c7500 with dual RSP boards. one of the boards is master and active and the otherone is the slave and has not booted. so if you want console access all the time to your c7500, you use this y-cable because it always connects you to the active RSP (e.g for a console server) hth -bis Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=52354&t=52296 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
