Hello guys! Who now, how I can to rise (do some advance) security on console port. Command "no service password-recovery" don't work. IOS on my switch : /c2500-i-l.121-18.bin and I must not to update IOS. Maybe exist some methods to make advanced security, because some people crashed config from switch through console and I want to block this with maximum security, but not to block the port. For example I have done : "exec-timeout 0 1" maybe I can do some think else?

That image will not support the command. You can try
slon(config)#login block-for xxx
but I doubt that will work. You can lock the door to the wiring closet

Yes, It's it's good idea for locking door to the wiring closet))) But this router stay no in our wiring closet, and some very clever man had a good idea to practice something whis my router... I have done "exec-timeout 0 1" and "login" without some password... I think It's will be ok, but maybe you have also some ideas for blocking.
slon(config)#login block-for xxx - it's not bad, but I now it is only for vty lines?
