Excellent Free Program
OldestChildApril 10, 2006
Pros
I've used this program for a few months now, with a USB to Serial converter, to configure Cisco routers. I've configured over 50 of them with no issue at all. Cut and paste from command templates works. Logging sessions works. Flow control over a WAN with high latency (in telnet mode) and locally over the serial (COM) port works. Note that "some other telnet programs" mess up the flow control in the WAN scenario. <p> <p>Nice program. Especially for a free one.
Cons
com://5,9600,8,n,1 is an awkward way to specify a com port. But the included help file tells you how to do this, so I'm okay with it.

Didn't self extract & is it really free?

The WinZip Self extractor just hung for an hour, at which I killed it. It told me SETUP.exe was still running. <p>Plus if it's not really free, I don't want it.

This is a cool little utility if you need to capture long text from telnet sessions. Only, I've still not figured out how to use it via the serial port. Otherwise, it rocks!
Fantastic!!

Developer’s Description

By Choung Networks

Connect your computer to the host using Winsock Telnet client or dial-up modem terminal.

Token 2 can be used as either a Winsock Telnet client or a dial-up modem terminal. It automatically determines the connection type based on the destination address. If 'abc.net' is entered as a destination, Token 2 will use Winsock to make the connection. If '555-5555' is entered, it will use the modem. Token 2 supports VT100/ANSI terminal modes and the user can even remap keyboard values. It can also connect to the COM port directly in RS-232 or RS-485 mode, and supports Zmodem transfer over the Internet and dial-up modems. Token 2 also supports local printing, and has the ability to capture and display the communication stream in real time. It also can properly handle two-byte characters, such as Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. Token 2 can be used with wide variety of proxy/firewall servers. It supports WinGate-type TIS, SOCKS 4.0, SOCKS 5.0, and SOCKS 5.0 with username/password authentication.
