Needing a little help
I have been trying to get this to work for a few weeks now and I was able to get the 2901 to console into devices (Cisco 2900 series switches) with configurations on them. Still, when I try to access a factory defaulted switch I enter my credentials and it goes no further I am not offered a prompt for the switch see attached. I am using a Cisco HWIC-16A 16 Port Async Interface with an octal async cable for my console connections
I have configured my 2901 with this config
Terminal-Server#sh run
