A console server is one of the devices I would put behind an SSH box,
together with the switches that are not smart enough to do ssh.

A 2801 with HWIC-16A is near $2500.
The 2511 solution is 1/10 that cost.

Still, I'm curious about the operation of the 2801.
In the 2511 world, I do "telnet foo 2014" to get to the 
14th port on a 2511.   With a 2800 and ssh, would I do 
something like "ssh -p 2014 foo"?

Thanks,
