Connecting to and Communicating with the Router
Connecting Through a Terminal Server
A terminal server connection provides a way to remotely access the Console port. It is less expensive to
connect to the router through the Management Ethernet interface (because you do not have the additional
cost of a terminal server). However, if you need to perform tasks that require Console port access from
a remote location, a terminal server is the best method.

The procedure for connecting to the router through a terminal server is similar to the procedure for
directly connecting through the Console port. For both connection types, the physical connection takes
place through the Console port. The difference is that the terminal server connects directly to the Console
port, and you must use a Telnet session to establish communications through the terminal server to the
router.
