Cisco PIX - Troubleshooting Commands
I was having an issue today troubleshooting a Cisco PIX today. A client has a Cisco PIX separating the outside world from their safe inside comfort zone. So what I needed to do is put 2 holes in the PIX to allow Remote Desktop clients to be able to connect to the server and also for their camera system to be viewed from the outside. I'll go on how I did that another day but I wanted to show you some troubleshooting tools (basic).
Bottom line, I tried to Remote Desktop in and couldn't after I thought I had it figured out but it didn't work. So I did this.
router# conf t (puts the router in configuration mode)
router# logging monitor 7 (turns on logging)
router# terminal monitor
This will push all output to the telnet console, be careful it may be a lot to handle. I then tried to use Remote Desktop and then I saw in the log that I had it mapped to the wrong IP address. Use the following commands to turn off logging.
router# terminal no monitor
router# no logging monitor
