Hello

I have this situation:

I have a router, its fast Ethernet 0/0 IP address is configured as 192.168.10.1

There are 2 PC's & I want to telnet to that router from both of them simultaneously..How could I do that?I mean the connection (the topology ), how it should be?

Thanks in advance..

The PCs are in the same subnet? Can both reach the router (ICMP)?

If you can reach the router then you can access the router with Telnet/SSH from two PC simultaneously, no problem. Use Putty, SecureCRT or Windows command prompt.

With this command you can access the router without the need for a password.

no aaa new-model line vty 0 4 or 0 15 on bigger routers no login privilege level 15

But watch out that nobody access your router.

Scarface is right, but you also asked for the topology so the simplest way would be to plug the FastEthernet0/0 port of the router into a switch then plug the PCs into the same switch. Give the PCs IP addresses in the 192.168.10.0/24 subnet (assuming the FastEthernet0/0 port is using a /24 subnet) and you can telnet into the router from both PCs at the same time.

@Scarface.. Thanks for your replay.. so helpful..

@Joshlowe... Thanks a lot. Many thanks, you understand exactly what I mean.

I wanted to know how to connect all these devices together, because I don't have the knowledge of applying topologies.. You also helped me in the Role Based CLI issue, so what can I said? you are so helpful.. I'm so happy that you give me part of your time & answer me. Thanks again..

Which Cisco router do you have?

You know that you can use GNS3 with a loopback interface on your Windows OS? You can connect this loopback to the router and then access the router via Telnet/SSH.

Here is a nice forum for you. http://www.networking-forum.com/index.php

If you have question, just ask.

Hello scarface

I have a cisco 2800 series router.

I don't catch up the idea of loopback interface, I know that GNS3 is a tool to create virtual labs for practicing cisco exams.

I already use the networking-forum.. it is the best, I like it a lot..but here I find people that have answers too, like you & joshlowe..

Thanks for your replay..
