Configuring the Cisco 700 Router as an RCAPI Server
Configuring the Cisco 700 Router as an RCAPI Server
This section describes how to configure the Cisco 700 series router to be an RCAPI server.
By default, RCAPI is disabled in the router. Enabling RCAPI causes the router to become an RCAPI server. When RCAPI is enabled, the router listens for incoming RCAPI messages from PCs connected on its LAN side. By default, the router listens for RCAPI messages on TCP port 2578.
Figure 6-1 illustrates the configuration used in this example. The PCs in the figure have RVS-COM software installed.
