The 3825 is a fairly nice router, but it can't handle a lot of throughput. I don't recall the exact specs (and can't find on a quick search), but I think that it can only handle <100Mb/s. That seems kinda low but I think it wasn't really designed as a packet pusher, but instead is designed as a platform for services like VoIP etc. It'll can probably be configured to do what you want, but I'm sure you'll be disappointed with the performance, especially for LAN->LAN traffic. -- Jeff Ollie _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
