This post shows you how to configure a Cisco router to act as a terminal or access server. Terminal/Access server makes it easy for you to be able to have console access to important devices on your network or if you have a bunch of routers and switches for your CCIE home lab.

Without further delay, here’s the configuration on how to configure your terminal/access server.

TERMSRV (config)# interface loopback0
 ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255
!
interface Ethernet0
 ip add 192.168.0.254 255.255.255.0
!
ip host BB1 2001 1.1.1.1
ip host BB2 2002 1.1.1.1
ip host BB3 2003 1.1.1.1
ip host R1 2004 1.1.1.1
ip host R2 2005 1.1.1.1
ip host R3 2006 1.1.1.1
ip host R5 2008 1.1.1.1
ip host R6 2009 1.1.1.1
ip host S4 2010 1.1.1.1
ip host S3 2011 1.1.1.1
ip host S2 2012 1.1.1.1
ip host S1 2013 1.1.1.1
ip host R4 2014 1.1.1.1
!
end

The commands below are optional. I had problems with my Cisco 2511 and this is the configuration that seemed to fix the issue. Unfortunately, I don’t exactly remember what it was since that was few years ago.

TERMSRV (config)# line 1 16
 flush-at-activation
 transport input telnet
 autohangup
!
end

I hope this has been helpful and I thank you for reading.
