Connecting an Appliance to a Terminal Server
A terminal server is a router with multiple, low speed, asynchronous ports that are connected to other

appliances.
To set up a Cisco terminal server with RJ-45 or hydra cable assembly connections, follow these steps:
Connect to a terminal server using one of the following methods:

Be sure to properly close a terminal session to avoid unauthorized access to the appliance.
Step 3
If a terminal session is not stopped properly, that is, if it does not receive an exit(0) signal from the
application that initiated the session, the terminal session can remain open. When terminal sessions are
not stopped properly, authentication is not performed on the next session that is opened on the serial port.
Caution
Always exit your session and return to a login prompt before terminating the application used to establish
the connection.
