Windows Phone Thoughts: Using your iPaq to console into Cisco Devices

http://www.bixworld.com/ipaqconsole/ipaq.htm

Chris 'Bix' Marshall has written an article that will interest anyone who has ever wanted to let their iPAQ chatter to a CISCO box. I've used my Pocket PC for some light networking troubleshooting, but never something as hard-core as this. How about you?

"As far as I can tell, this should work for any PocketPC with a serial interface and any device you happen to have that can be managed through a Console interface (a co-worker uses a similar setup to manage his Sun boxes). I'm just going to specifically address the iPaq/Cisco side of things, because that's what I know works (and that's what's in all the pretty pictures) and, we all know that getting a sexy little iPaq to talk with a king of the hill network device from Cisco is just geek heaven. This is really just a hodge-podge of several other separate ideas I've seen out there, updated for newer versions of software, all rolled into one."

Psst - Hey Bix, it's "Pocket PC" with a space. :-)
