I have a cisco 2621 router and want to know if I can connect to the router with just a rollover cabe to the console port from my ethernet port. If so how should I configure the port. If not I'll buy a db9 / rj45 adapter. I got the router, but don't know the ip address to telnet to. Can I recycle the router using this method to do a password recovery. I'm new to this and want to get things up and running as soon as possible to make sure I didn't buy a broken router.
Thanks, Mark
