creating shortcuts
Because you will be reverse telnetting into your routers and switches, it's easy to create shortcuts using the below commands from the global config mode:
ip host r1 2001 1.1.1.1
where r1 is the shortcut, 01 is the line number (the octal cable number), and 1.1.1.1 is the loopback address of your equipment.
So, your 2511 router will have the below configuration:
ip host r1 2001 1.1.1.1
ip host r2 2002 1.1.1.1
ip host r3 2003 1.1.1.1
ip host sw1 2004 1.1.1.1
ip host sw2 2005 1.1.1.1
ip host r1 2001 1.1.1.1
where r1 is the shortcut, 01 is the line number (the octal cable number), and 1.1.1.1 is the loopback address of your equipment.
So, your 2511 router will have the below configuration:
ip host r1 2001 1.1.1.1
ip host r2 2002 1.1.1.1
ip host r3 2003 1.1.1.1
ip host sw1 2004 1.1.1.1
ip host sw2 2005 1.1.1.1

How is your equipment setup?
When and where do you get "host unreachable" message?

The router 2511 is connet to the router 2610 using the cab-octal-async cable on the console port were 01 is the line number of (octal-cable)
when I want to telnet router 2610 I do this
from router 2511:
r0#telnet r1
Trying r1 (1.1.1.1, 2001)...
% Destination unreachable; gateway or host down. ok
Thank you for your important time !!

well your interfaces don't have addresses so thats the first problem. The second problem is that shutdown means the interface isn't active. Give the interfaces an address on the LAN then use the no shutdown.
what interface is the Octal cable connected to?

the octal cable is connected to the console of the router 2016 using line "1"
When I want to active interface async1 using no shutdown it does not work, because the interface is down.

Unless you want to purchase a firewall, you can sort of protect your network using NAT. Assign your public address to your ethernet port and use NAT overload to translate all of your internal IP addresses (e.g. your servers and host computers).

Hi thanks for the info.
For remote users to access the internal cisco router, switches, how many public IP do i need? one is enough?
i need to open the ports on the firewall, how many ports do i need for remote users to access the internal equipment? port 22 is enough?
thanks for your help. I dont have the equipment, ive read a few docs but couldnt the the right info.
merry xmas.

Sorry for the late reply, but here it goes.
to access r1, instead of typing "telnet r1", just type, "r1"
Then, if you are hooking up more equipment through octal cable (2511), just put in more shortcuts (e.g. ip host r2 2002 1.1.1.1). Just a reminder, but the line number must match the octal cable number. Hopefully, your octal cables are numbered.
After typing, "r1", if you get a message, "% Connection refused by remote host", then type , "clear line 1" for line 1 and "clear line 2" for line 2, etc... Sometimes, you may have to clear lines multiple times; then type "r1" again. YOu should be able to get in. If you have more questions, please email me at cisco@techprosgroup.com
