Remote access telnet to Router is not working

[frank2812]

Even though the router is configure to accept  telnet connection we can not connect. I atached the sh run  of the Router. We can do ping to the router. I proved doing telnet from inside the same router but is not working like you can see in the logs down here. i proved telnet from diferent devices but is not working.

*Dec  6 14:16:58.437: %FAN-3-FAN_FAILED: Fan 1 had a rotation error reported.

Trying 192.168.13.1 ...

% Connection refused by remote host

Franklin,

the exec-timeout is 0, so maybe all the vtys are just in use and never time out.

Could you check this with show line vty 0 4 and clear the lines if necessary?

Saludos

I thought the telnet gets timed out ?

I thought the telnet gets timed out ?

Well, it does; by default after 10 minutes inactivity.

But in this case the exec-timeout was set to zero, which means it never times out.

yeah sure,

then i don't think of any reason why we are not able to telnet

Franklin, try that , removing the no ecex-timeout command and kill all the current telnet sessions

lets see...

Output is pointing the issue with hardware.

I would like to do some bug scrub, please share show version output.

Also let me know, if it works fine from console.
