telnet use the secondary IP address??

[lei.chen]

Does anyone knows how to telnet use the secondary IP address on the route interface????

Yes, You can use the secondary ip address for telnet.

make sure, you have connectivity to ur primary address.

you should be able to telnet the router interface using the secondary ip address.

how to do it ?

if I have the config below:

"interface e0/0

ip add 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0

ip add 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 sec"

how can I use the 192.168.1.1 as the source address to telnet

another router in the 192.168.1.0 network?????

If the other end of the router has 10.0.0.2 or in the same network, you would be able to ping to 10.0.0.1

so you have connectivity there.

Then you would be able to ping to the secondary ip address configured on the interface which has 10.0.0.1 and also you would be able to do telnet.

There is no need to provide the source address while you do telnet

I have the topology like this

s1(10.0.0.1)--------------s1(10.0.0.2(100.100.100.2)

|

|

s2(100.100.100.1)

I am able to telnet 100.100.100.1 as well as 100.100.100.2 since 10.0.0.0 has connectivity.

Hope this helps

if the 100.100.100.1 has no idea of the route 10.0.0.0

then what can i do????

[dnagarajachary]

if the 100.100.100.1 has no idea of the route 10.0.0.0

You cant do telnet or ping.

Define a static route to forward the 10 network throught the outgoing interfae.

otherwise, it wouldnt be knowing where to send the packet and hence will be dropped.
