Remove previous connection in Mobaxterm

[Leftz]

Hi Cannot access switch using Mobaxterm by console sometimes. How to remove previous connection? Thank you

[pieterh]

you first need to determine WHY you cannot get access
- is the SSH key not accepted ?
- did you reach the max number of sessions on your switch ?
 (are we talking about switch or do you mean other hosts ?)
- is your local computer running out of resources ?
- do you use local accounts or remote (radius) authentication?

@pieterh Thank you for your reply! and sorry for the delay response. The issue is we have to go to OOB switch to reset the port which is connected to router/switch after using the OOB switch port, meaning we need to clear the port on OOB switch site. Do we have send a command from Mobaxterm to kill the connection? Actually I used it before. now i forget it

Do you mean you use the OOB switch as a serial "terminal server" ?
tTat is you telnet/ssh INTO the oob switch and and go out the console port of the OOB switch,
to make a connection to the serial console port of the actual switch ?
If so, you need to set a session timeout on the OOB switch so your telnet/ssh session will disconnect after some idle time.

Hello,

you might want to check if there are previous uncleared sessions. If there are, clear them manually, e.g.:

Switch#show tcp brief
TCB Local Address Foreign Address (state)
0FD0C930 1.1.1.1.23 2.2.2.1.48522 ESTAB

Switch#clear tcp tcb 0FD0C930
