How To Configure An Access Server
By Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
Your CCNA / CCNP Home Cisco Lab is going to cry out for an access server sooner or later - moving that console cable around does get old. :) Configuring one is simple enough. Here's the access server config I use in my racks:
version 12.0
service timestamps debug uptime
service timestamps log uptime
no service password-encryption
!
hostname POD_ONE_ACCESS
!
!
!
!
!
!
ip subnet-zero
no ip domain-lookup
ip host FRS 2006 100.1.1.1
ip host SW2 2005 100.1.1.1
ip host SW1 2004 100.1.1.1
ip host R3 2003 100.1.1.1
ip host R1 2001 100.1.1.1
ip host R2 2002 100.1.1.1
!
!
!
!
interface Loopback0
ip address 100.1.1.1 255.255.255.255
no ip directed-broadcast
!
interface Ethernet0
no ip address
no ip directed-broadcast
shutdown
!
interface Serial0
no ip address
no ip directed-broadcast
no ip mroute-cache
shutdown
no fair-queue
!
interface Serial1
no ip address
no ip directed-broadcast
shutdown
!
ip classless
no ip http server
!
!
line con 0
exec-timeout 0 0
logging synchronous
transport input none
line 1 8
transport input all
line aux 0
line vty 0 4
login
The IP HOST commands all refer to the access server's loopback and the async line being used to access the remote device.
