Hi All,
I'm encountering a curious problem (or I'm overlooking something).
I'm configuring a console server for configuring remote devices. This is working well except for the fact that if a target device is in ROMMON mode, the console server refuses to displays the target device console. It does open the connection but the ROMMON prompt is not shown on the console server . This is essential for this device as we will need to use it to reset passwords remotely and thus need to be able to access ROMMON mode from the console server.
Parts used are a 2951 router and a HWIC-8A serial card. Does anyone has some ideas?
Posted my config below:

This appeared to be a hardware issue and is solved. Configuration of the access server was o.k..
