router remote command

[ylee-mlx]

I need aid for the following task:

From a SUN station, I need modify the configuration, of the serial port of Cisco 1720.

Currently I type the following commands:

1- telnet router1

1.1- I type the telnet password

2- enable

2.1- I type the password of enable

3- config terminal

4- interface serial 0/2

5- I execute the command

IMPORTANT: It would like to do this activity remotely, using a script or "rsh" from my SUN server, giving only one command.

I already configured at router1:

1- username remote password (pass)

2- ip rcmd source-interface Fastethernet 0/0

3- ip rcmd remote-host remote (ip-address) remote enable 15

4- ip rcmd rsh-enable

You can create a config file on your SUN.

i.e : interface serial 0/2

ip add 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

no shut

After you use rcp like this :

rcp config-file router:running-config

[ylee-mlx]

Will this only modify in the interface desired without affecting the functioning of the router?

Thanks.

[pcollard]

Yes

You don't need to send all the config.

Please, I still need help:

I can´t obtain result for rsh/rcp requisition from router.

Could you analyze this problem ?

Best regards.

[pcollard · Accepted solution]

For the messages "Illegal IP keyword - rcmd ", I thinks than your rom software is too old for the IOS 11.0(22a)

For rsh/rcp requisition, here is the configuration which I use

no ip rcmd domain-lookup

ip rcmd rcp-enable

ip rcmd rsh-enable

ip rcmd remote-host myhostname-on-my-SUN X.X.X.X myhostname-on-my-SUN enable

ip rcmd source-interface Ethernet0

So you must ping your "rcmd source-interface" since your SUN
