Cisco 2509 access router problem

newman555

Hi!

I finally had enough time to cable and prepare my ccna lab (3 routers, 2 switches and 2509 access router), but I have a problem accessing routers and switches trough my 2509. On router and switches I don't have anything configured (do I need to configure anything to work with access server?), and 2509 config has this only:
ip host c1 2001 100.1.1.1
ip host c2 2002 100.1.1.1
ip host c3 2003 100.1.1.1
ip host c4 2004 100.1.1.1
ip host c5 2005 100.1.1.1
interface Loopback0
ip address 100.1.1.1 255.255.255.255
line 1 8
transport input telnet

Sometimes I can connect, but only after clearing line x, and right now I can't connect at all. Please help...thanks!

You need the no exec command configured on your access server line configuration.

Now I can access my equipment, but I have another problem. I connect by simply typing "c1"+enter and then exit with ctr+shift+6 and x. After that if I later try to reconnect with "c1" and enter, it says: "connection refused by remote host".

What am I doing wrong?

type w and press enter this will give you a list that corresponds with the host i.e if you type c2 first it will be your first line then when you connect back you just type 1

terminal-server#w
Conn Host Address Byte Idle Conn Name
1 r3 1.1.1.1 0 0 r3
2 r6 1.1.1.1 0 0 r6
3 r1 1.1.1.1 0 0 r1
4 s1 1.1.1.1 6 0 s1
* 5 s4 1.1.1.1 0 0 s4

the * below are active connections and to free the up you just type clear line x

terminal-server#sh line

show hosts will give you a list of hosts

terminal-server#sh host
Default domain is not set
Name/address lookup uses static mappings

s9 2009 (perm, OK) 0 IP 1.1.1.1
