FW: Ctrl+Shift+6 then X
Hi Guys, If anyone can tell me how to resolve this issue there's a strong possibility of a fedex'd beer. Using Putty or any other ssh/telnet terminal I find that Ctrl+Shift+6 then X (on a cisco) works only sometimes after beating your keyboard multiple times with a hammer, has anyone else come across or had a solution to this problem ?

I have found that using "Ctrl-6" (through putty) gives me breaks on Ciscos. You usually have to wait for the device to poll for a break (especially in pings/traceroutes), but it does actually work. Elmar. PS: Please don't fedex beer to Germany...
Bruce, I have that problem using any terminal program (I use SecureCRT).. I have to bang the command like 10-20 times for the device to recognize it. Kind of wished CTRL-C or something worked better and actually worked well. Shon Elliott Senior Network Engineer unWired Broadband, Inc. Bruce Grobler wrote:

Ye, exact same things happens for me, then after it decides to execute it you have a nice long line of 6x6x66x6x666x66666, tried the Ctrl+6 no such luck... -----Original Message----- From: Shon Elliott [mailto:shon@unwiredbb.com] Sent: Monday, February 23, 2009 10:48 AM To: nanog@nanog.org >> nanog Subject: Re: FW: Ctrl+Shift+6 then X Bruce, I have that problem using any terminal program (I use SecureCRT)..

Just configure a different escape character with "terminal escape x". For example, "term esc 3" will make Ctrl/C the escape character (and Ctrl/C+X the escape sequence). Ctrl/^ is "somewhat" hard to get on "some" terminal emulators :) Ivan

I usually change the escape character to ctrl-C using: line vty 0 15 escape-character 3 Then you can escape with Ctrl-C followed by x. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D.

Hi, Yep does that all the time the worst is on a traceroute where it seems you need to wait for the end of line to send the ctrl+shift+6. Workaround on cisco: Line con 0 Escape-character 3 Line vty 0 4 Escape-character 3 Whith this you can just CTRL+C Cheers, Michel Moriniaux -----Message d'origine----- De : Bruce Grobler [mailto:bruce@yoafrica.com] Envoyé : lundi 23 février 2009 09:22 À : nanog@nanog.org Objet : FW: Ctrl+Shift+6 then X Hi Guys, If anyone can tell me how to resolve this issue there's a strong possibility of a fedex'd beer.

What, nobody's using vt220s anymore? (Almost bought one (or rather a vt420) off ebay for fun to plug in to one of our 2500 terminal servers for the machine room - but realised that not having cut-and-paste would be very annoying.)
