Greg- you need a dual Ethernet router. Your 2501 is great for a T-1 or
Frame-Relay, but what you need here is multiple LAN interfaces. I would
suggest either the 25xx version, 1605R (if I remember my models correctly),
or the 3101 (of the 3000 series routers). All have dual Ethernet & IP
versions beyond 11.3(T) have PAT (or NAT overload functions). DHCP "out"
started somewhere in 12.1
All the best
Phil
