Can someone please help? [7:869]
I am able to get my hands on some Cisco routers at work. My questions is, what will I be able to do with two Cisco routers (2500 Series and 1700 Series). Thank you.

If you have some serial WIC's and Enterpise software you can do a few things like: Basic routing protocols. HSRP on the ethernet interfaces. NTP. Practice non IP protocols like IPX and Appletalk. Access-lists. Distribute lists With a firewall feature set image for the 2500 you can practice CBAC. bridging Integrated routing and bridging All kinds of basic stuff. Fatkid.com has a lot of basic labs to practice. So Certificationzone.com. Even though 2 routers doesn't make a CCIE type lab, hardware is hardware and anything is better than nothing.

It depends on the interfaces you'll have on the 1700 and 2500. The base 1700 has only a fastethernet port which can connect via a crossover cable (or hub/switch) to the ethernet port of the 2500 via an AUI-to-10baseT transceiver (if it's a 2500 with an ethernet port and not token ring). You can use the AUX ports to reverse telnet into the CON port of the opposite routing and even use it as an async device to route over (AUX to AUX, of course). If you're given a WIC T1 CSU/DSU module for the 1700 and had an external CSU/DSU for the 2500 (say an AdTran TSU 120), you can connect them via a T1 crossover cable (pins 1,2 cross with 4,5). If nothing else, you can just dig into IOS and learn the commands and syntax. There is a ton you can do to learn routing protocols, etc. if you can get the two routers to communicate (although 3 routers would be more ideal, but two is better than one or even none!). -- Jason Roysdon, CCNP+Security/CCDP, MCSE, CNA, Network+, A+ List email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://jason.artoo.net/ ""johnyohanus-cisco"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
