Re: AGS+ Router Question [7:38726]
Sorry I am late to post on this. AGS+ is going to be alot more inexpensive than a 2522/2523. However, personally, I would go with a 4500M, which is a *very* fast router for lab use, and later on can support fastethernet and atm modules as well. 4500M with 4-port serial (NP-4T), and 1-port ethernet (NP-1E) is $500 $600 and I will include 4 dte/dce cables for hooking up your routers. I have a small book I am writing that I will be publishing on the net for free and it gives lots of tips on equipment selection, look for it.

Re: AGS+ Router Question [7:38726]
I've just gotten one of these wonderful (and loud) AGS+'s from a seller on Ebay. When I received my shipment I had the router only, no manuals, no cables, etc. I have had no luck finding what kind of console cable this router uses as I've already tried the standard Cisco flat console cable. Anyone know the correct console cable for the AGS+ TIA, Jeff Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=40759&t=38726 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: AGS+ Router Question [7:38726]
That is what I want to know as there is what appears to be a good one on Ebay. Right now I've got 4 Routers and a 2924 XL EN switch. All Running 12.2 FW IPSEC ENT and all 16/16. I've got a 2514 actually routing my internet to comcast cable and 2514 2522 2503 I thought the AGS might round it out so I can do the really complex labs.

Re: AGS+ Router Question [7:38726]
Have you ever seen one of those AGS routers humming away? :-) Let's put it this way... they use standard 110V power, alright, but draw upwards of 7 AMPs. Not only that, but they have a high-output fan blower assembly that runs right off the 110V main power. No dinky 12V fan here! :-) In short, they're loud, they're power hungry, but they're also FAST and very suitable for low-cost Cisco lab racks!!

Re: AGS+ Router Question [7:38726]
Exactly what kind of power are we talking about here? I've seen this routers on Ebay and seen nothing about special power requirements. It's standard 110 Volt right? >On 18 Mar 2002 19:01:35 -0500, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ("Larry Letterman") wrote: >it should be free, since it'll cost a fortune >to power it.I got a 4000 with a 4 port serial >module to do the frame switch part, works great and >the electric company doesn't get my pay check... > > >Larry Letterman >Cisco Systems >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > >-Original Message- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of >Priscilla Oppenheimer >Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 3:23 PM >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: AGS+ Router Question [7:38726] > > >At 05:46 PM 3/18/02, Jeff Barr wrote: >>I was thinking of buying an AGS+ router for a frame relay/x.25 switch for >my >>lab.

RE: AGS+ Router Question [7:38726]
it should be free, since it'll cost a fortune to power it.I got a 4000 with a 4 port serial module to do the frame switch part, works great and the electric company doesn't get my pay check...
