Ok, I've just spent all morning on Cisco's site (our rep is out of town) and
can not make heads or tails of what I need to buy.

What I have is a mixed IP, IPX, and Token Ring network. There are some NT
boxes, some Netware boxes and an AS400 (clients connect via IP client).

I'm going to install a new Netware 5 box on a Dell server, and I want to add
a router in front of the Dell and make that the new gateway. The way it is
now, the gateway for users is whatever server is nearest them (no, I did not
design this stuff, I just inherited it).

So, between all the servers I have 4 ethernet segments and 2 token ring.

Questions:

Do I buy a 2500 that has the 6 ports that I need (doesn't seem I can
configure one that way)

Looking at this page:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/rt/2500/index.shtml

I don't see that I can get what I need. It seems to me that I could just buy
X series of router and plug in some modules that have the ports that I need,
but
I can't seem to find one that you can configure like that.

WTF am I missing here?

Thanks,

Nat
