While preparing for my CCNP recertification<\/a> , I faced a problem using \u00a0Secure CRT with Gns3 labs on windows 7. Though there is an option to select secure crt as the defualt client , for some reason it\u00a0didn’t\u00a0work more over, there was some wrong \u00a0path mentioned \u00a0in the default settings \u00a0(see below).<\/p>\n

start C:\\progra~1\u000bandyk~1\\SecureCRT\\SecureCRT.EEE \/script C:\\progra~1\\gns3\\securecrt.vbs \/arg %d \/T \/telnet %h %p<\/p>\n

Actually you do not need to put dos directory name in the path on \u00a0windows 7 \u00a0.So i tried \u00a0the command<\/p>\n

“C:\\Program Files\\VanDyke Software\\SecureCRT\\SecureCRT.EXE” \/script “C:\\Program Files\\GNS3\\securecrt.vbs” \/arg %d \/T \/telnet %h %p<\/em>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0( \u00a0including ” ” ).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But this returned an error message saying that the remote system refused the connection , from which I \u00a0understood \u00a0that it is because of windows firewall . I added \u00a0inbound and out bound rules in windows firewall advanced settings to allow \u00a0C:\\Program Files\\VanDyke Software\\SecureCRT\\SecureCRT.EXE \u00a0 and replaced \u00a0 %h \u00a0 \u00a0 with 127.0.0.1 \u00a0in the command above.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can see \u00a0the secure crt connection tabs in the picture which \u00a0shows my multiple routers in GNS3<\/a>.<\/p>\n
