hello all,would any body be able to help me out on a cisco 677 series router? i'm trying to figure out how to get this thing to forward to a udp port so i can use this remote access program and i do not have a clue as to what they(cisco)are trying to tell me in thier user guide when they say to open my "terminal emulation software"?and even worse how you open this port.thank you in advance to any help from anyone on this matter. running win2k sp3.

terminal emulation.. such as Teraterm, Hyperterm (free with windows) and such. You can connect either by telnet or by the console port on the router and the serial port on the PC.
You will need to use the udp forwarding like this:
router>
router>enable (then password)
router#
router# config t
router(config)#ip forward-protocol udp <port number>

ok another stupid question...how excatly do you connect to the router thru the hyper treminal??the only options that it shows me are com port 1-2 and winsock/tcp ip. is there something that im missing???thanks again to anyone that helps me out here.
The cable is connected by a 9 pin adapter to the serial port on the PC.. com1 or com2.. your choice if you have more then one port, normally com1 if you only have one port.

ok i got to the hyper terminal part..connected to the com port that the router is plugged into. according to cisco's manual when it connects i should get the following
hello!
cbos v2.0.1
or what ever version. but when i connect to it thru the hyper terminal i get no welcome and when i hit the enter key that they say to do all i get is the password prompt. when i hit enter or type in cbos like it says in the book the password says invailid. i hate to keep bugging everyone but this is my first time trying this and i am with out a doubt clueless.

ok got it to the cbos finally..i guess i had to run hyper terminal and then reset the router for it to work. but one problem the command line of "config t" said it was a invalid command?thanks for sticking in there with me on this. all i want to do is forward 1 little port thats all

Ok, the IOS commands will not work on your Cisco 677, this router uses CBOS (Cisco Broadband Operating System).
CBOS uses the "set" command to configure the router.
I do not have hands on experience with CBOS but it looks like you might be able to achieve your goal using the "set nat" command. Check out this link:
Example from the documentation:
Web Server
To allow an incoming connection to a Web server, you must configure a translation to port 80.
set nat entry add {internal device address} 80 {outside NAT address} 80 tcp
set nat entry add {internal device address} 80 {outside NAT address} 80 udp
In any case good luck.

CN- good catch on the specific router being a "set" based router.
Here is a slightly different sample from the readme files:
Added support for protocols other than TCP, UDP, and ICMP--When protocols other than these are embedded in IP, CBOS software translates the IP header. To use this feature, enter protocol numbers in lieu of protocol names (TCP, UDP, ICMP) when creating or deleting static NAT entries. For example:
set nat entry add 10.0.0.2 0 201.71.0.100 0 47
Where 47 corresponds to protocol number 47.
Also, the show nat command also now displays protocol numbers in the protocol column when the protocol is not TCP, UDP, or ICMP protocol
Better is the link for using the Cisco Broadband Operation System

thank you again for all the help. when you say internal device address do you mean my privet i.p. address or something elese also the same with outside NAT address. i know im probably getting on everyones nerves by now and i do really thank you for all the help in this matter.the program i need this done for is for remote access program and i was told by them that i need to set up port forwarding for 6502. that is what im trying to accomplish here. thanks again very much.
