Cancelling an outbound Telnet session
If you want to cancel a Telnet session from the console to a remote Telnet server (for example, if the
connection is frozen), you can terminate the Telnet session by doing the following.
1. At the console, press Ctrl-^ (Ctrl-Shift-6).
2. Press the X key to terminate the Telnet session.
Pressing Ctrl-^ twice in a row causes a single Ctrl-^ character to be sent to the Telnet server. After
you press Ctrl-^, pressing any key other than X or Ctrl-^ returns you to the Telnet session.
Configuring an interface as the source for all TFTP packets
You can configure the device to use the lowest-numbered IP address configured on a loopback
interface, virtual routing interface, or Ethernet port as the source for all TFTP packets it sends. The
software uses the lowest-numbered IP address configured on the interface as the source IP
address for the packets.
For example, to specify the lowest-numbered IP address configured on a virtual routing interface as
the device's source for all TFTP packets, enter commands such as the following.
BigIron RX(config)# int ve 1
BigIron RX(config-vif-1)# ip address 10.0.0.3/24
BigIron RX(config-vif-1)# exit
BigIron RX(config)# ip tftp source-interface ve 1
The commands configure virtual routing interface 1, assign IP address 10.0.0.3/24 to it, then
designate the address as the source address for all TFTP packets.
Syntax: [no] ip tftp source-interface ethernet <portnum> | loopback <num> | ve <num>
The default is the lowest-numbered IP address configured on the port through which the packet is
sent. The address therefore changes, by default, depending on the port.
Configuring an interface as the source for Syslog packets
You can configure the device to use the lowest-numbered IP or IPv6 address configured on a
loopback interface, virtual interface, or Ethernet port as the source for all Syslog packets from the
device. The software uses the lowest-numbered IP or IPv6 address configured on the interface as
the source IP address for the packets.
For example, to specify the lowest-numbered IP address configured on a virtual interface as the
device's source for all Syslog packets, enter commands such as the following.
BigIron RX(config)# int ve 1
BigIron RX(config-vif-1)# ip address 10.0.0.4/24
BigIron RX(config-vif-1)# exit
BigIron RX(config)# ip syslog source-interface ve 1
