Access Server 2511

[Schuey97]

Hey all.

I have added a 2511 Access Server to my CISCO rack to make it easier to study. I have everything setup the way CISCO and other websites state it should be done and when I go to connect to one of my Routers/Switches, I get the following:

Trying R2 (172.26.1.1, 2005)... Open

I am assuming that my connect to Router 2 is now open, but I am unable to do anything. In the end I have to Ctrl+Shift+6 X and get back to the Access Server.

I have tried two different octal cables (including most of the leads), both of the async ports and I get the above and nothing more.

All Routers and Switches have been restored to default and have no configurations on them.

Below is my current Access Server Config:

Have I messed up any settings? Do I need a different IOS version? Did I buy a faulty Access Server?

Thanks for your help
