Its a known issue with dynamips on Linux that the dynamips instances
cannot talk to the host that is running dynamips, which is where the
console ports are. To get around this, you need to configure the
terminal server e0/0 to map to a tap interface rather then using eth0
or whatever physical interface you have. The second task is to
create a bridging instance and add both the physical and tap
interfaces to the bridging instance. Unfortunately, the tap
interface is create when you start dynagen and you have to add it to
the bridging instance after you start the rack and once you stop
dynamips it will disappear. You have to keep adding it every time
you start dynamips/dynagen so it can become a pain. Another pain is
that you have to move the ip address of your physical interface to
the bridging interface or you will not have connectivity anymore.
