RE: wan home lab [7:38829]
You'll need to purchase an external CSU/DSU to connect to the 2500. Usually uses a V.35 cable between router and CSU/DSU. Then connect the internal CSU/DSU of the 2600 to the external CSU/DSU. T-1s use pins 12 and 45. Create a rollover cable swapping those two pairs and you're good to go. Remember Clocking Internal on one of the CSU/DSUs. A good source for used equipment is eBay. Buy the box first - then the cable. Larscoms use an RS530 cable. -Original Message- From: v s [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2002 12:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: wan home lab [7:38829] I am setting up a home lab.

Re: wan home lab [7:38829]
You will need a CSU/DSU, for one of the 2500 routers... then a loopback line cable (easy to make). then you could do what you are wanting... But to behonest with you, when you hook up 2 serials together, you are simulating a wan connection, default is T1 unless you change the bandwidth command... - Original Message - From: v s To: Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2002 12:04 PM Subject: wan home lab [7:38829] I am setting up a home lab.

RE: wan home lab [7:38829]
Given that you are sending channelized data from the 2600, you will need an external CSU for the 2500 to return the channelized data from the 2600 back to serialized data. The cabling between the two CSU's is a simple crossover cable where the pinout is: 1 -- 4 2 -- 5 4 -- 1 5 -- 2 Then you'd need a V.35 to (presumably) DB-60 for the connection from the CSU to the 2500. Configure the CSU's to utilize all 24 channels, and POOF...Simulated T-1... Hope this helps.
