Unblock some ports

Hey,

I have a Cisco router 837 and I want to unblock some ports I use a script to configure the router at present as I configure many for our stores.

I have been asked to unblock some ports and when I try to do this via the web control panel it always dies whenever I try to save any settings to the router so this is why I use a script instead. (Before you ask it does it on every router and I have upgraded the firmware & IOS software)

Please HEELLLPPP.

sounds as if your current script has an ACL, and this ACL will allow access to the router from the web, and when you try to upgrade your ACL to allow the blocked ports you are losing access from the web as the current ACL has to be negated before being updated. You could try not adding the blocked ports to the existing ACL by creating a separate ACL for them, or by far the better solution, have OOB access to the routers and access them from the local LAN side.

HTH.
