This may or may not have been approached here before but i've not seen it.I have the following equipment,to work with.3 2501's,1 2924 switch, 1 2612, 1 2521 for frame relay, 1 2503, 1 2502, 1 2511 terminal server, 1 pix 501.I have a lab set up so that i can do reverse telnet into the various routers and switch.I would like to be able to remotely log in from school,or an internet cafe so to speak.Is there a way to do this just like people renting rack time.I'm studying for my ccna,ccnp then hopefully with lots of practice and experience ccie.I hope i explained myself clearly.Thanks in advance.

 
just allow VTY access from anywhere and then telnet in.
make sure your passwords are pretty secure though.
 
Would depend a lot on whether you have a static or dynamic internet connection. Might have a hard time if dynamic as the address is subject to change.
 
So what would be the necessary steps for me to set this up from the ground up.Or is there some site you could refer me to that has some documentation on it.As it happens i do have dynamic internet connection.DHCP is enabled so i'm sure there is some work around,lets say a dialup modem?.
 
Putting a modem on the AUX port for dialup access would be the easiest method for remote access. Any US Robotics external modem with the Cisco mod tap and cable should do the trick. Easy to configure once modem is hooked up.

This from config on router that used to have this:

line aux 0
password 7 XXXXXXXXXXXXX
login
modem Dialin
modem autoconfigure discovery
stopbits 1
speed 115200
flowcontrol hardware
