Troubleshooting

Most rConfig issues are simple device credential issues, template misconfiguration issues, or a lack of knowledge of telnet/ ssh protocols. Some steps to help you are outlined below.

Check file permissions issues. To resolve this, run chown -R apache /home/rconfig on the rConfig server CLI
A credential issue with your device. Always double check that the device in rConfig has the correct username, password and enable mode password set.
A prompt configuration issue (has the correct device prompt been placed on the device config page in rConfig). i.e. router# or router>
Or other connectivity issue. KB2001 will help you resolve most issues.
Please read help files and support documentation to undestand rConfig features in more detail, such as connection templates etc..
