Wondering if anyone can help . Installed terminal and have minicom running succesfully on my ipad which enables me to use a rj45 to ipad . I sourced this lead so i could console onto cisco routers and other rs232 equipment . Its working great but ive a small problem which im hoping some of you can help me with .
To enable me to boot up minicom through terminal i need to first ssh from my ipad into my ipad if that makes sense . To do this i get the ip of my ipad and use it as the hostname . Now my problem is i want to be able to use my cisco lead setup without needing to connect to a network . Idea being i can take my ipad to a remote site which hasnt got a network so i can put a basic config onto a cisco router . This link explains it better than im doing here
Serial Port on the iPhone with Minicom
Can i make a dummy static ip for my ipad without seeing any wifi connections . Just like i would on a terminal adaptor in windows , or is there any other way i can ssh without the need for a ip ( i.e mac address ) . Im kinda stuck and would appreciate any help .
thanks
