CirrusCan I use rdsh from tmos
I am trying to use rdsh for route domains. But when I enter rdsh ID it sends me to tmos shell. When I try telnet to IP and port I receive message Connection refused. But when I try with rdexec from bash it works fine.
[bash-linux@f5:Standby:In Sync] ~ rdexec 20 telnet 10.10.10.5 879 Trying 10.10.10.5... Connected to 10.10.10.5. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host.
[bash-linux@f5:Standby:In Sync] ~ rdsh 20
Sends me to tmos.
bash-linux@f5:Standby:In Sync(cfg-sync In Sync)(Standby)(/Common)(tmos) run util telnet 10.10.10.5 879
Trying 10.10.10.5... telnet: connect to address 10.10.10.5: Connection refused
Update:
I found that this works:

You are in the "/Common" partition after "rdsh 20". Is this the right partition to use to connect to 10.10.10.5?

when i do rdsh from the normal shell i just stay in that shell. you have first exited from tmsh via a run or such?
can't you exit tmsh again? which version of TMOS are you running?

Same here.
Leo@(bigIP)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) bash [Leo@bigIP:Active:In Sync] ~ rdsh 1 Leo@(bigIP)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) bash [Leo@bigIP:Active:In Sync:%0] ~Notice the prompt says we are at the default route domain (%0) instead of the intended (%1). (I modified bashrc file to add the route domain to the prompt)
When logging with root, I end up directly in the Bash shell, and rdsh works normally.
Since I am using Radius to login, and with Radius I cannot configure the remote accounts to log in directly in Bash, I am afraid that rdsh is not available to me 😞
I am right? Using 11.4.1

What have you added to the .bashrc file to display the route domain?- Leo_Rodrigues_1Actually it was on /etc/bashrc: https://devcentral.f5.com/s/feed/0D51T00006i7QIhSAM Cheers.
- eneRNice, thank you.

DevBabu_174449Great, this works.
