I have a 1751 trunked to my c2924XL running IP/FW/IDS/PLUS/IPSEC/3DES and it
only supports dot1q trunking on the 100Mb interface.  Works like a champ,
though.

Another bit of good info to know:

Traditionally, the 1700 series would not support trunking, either ISL or
Dot1Q.  That includes both the 1720 and 1750.  In these cases, you had to
purchase a 2600 with IP Plus, which is an expensive proposition to avoid the
necessity of 2 or more E/FE interfaces.

I just setup for a client a 1721 router which DOES support both trunking
encapsulations and does it with IP only IOS!  This is a huge savings over
the traditional options for inter-VLAN routing.  There are also new 1751 and
1760 models which I believe also support both modes of trunks.

apparently last week some one on the list made the ethernets work
in a 2600 router at 10mb....

Vlan trunking requires a fast ethernet connection.  It cannot be trunked
with a 261X.  You'd need a 262X.

If you have to deal with a 2611, your options become much more limited.  You
could replace the 2611 with a 2620.  Or you could get a ethernet module for
the 2611.  Unfortunately, last time I checked (whish was a couple years ago,
given) those ethernet modules came in two models, 1 and 4 port, and cost
about $1000 per port.

Another option would be to replace the 2611 with a 1750.  It's got one fast
ethernet port.  If this network is as small as it sounds, it'd be a viable
option.

Oh, and about trunking, the way it works is you define the switch port
connected to the router as a trunk.  This allows multiple (in your case,
all) vlans to use the one port.  The router is configured with subinterfaces
on the fastethernet port, one for each vlan.  The router can then route
between these vlans.
