Anybody know if the Cisco 675 can be programmed offline?

I have a couple extras here that I'd like to program as backups, but I really don't want to disconnect the one in use and take down my server to plug them in and try. Can this be done? Or, do they have to be trained while mucking about in CBOS?

no, you should be able to just use the serial cable and set them that way. NAT rules, etc. should be able to be set as well just by hyperterm-ing in via the serial link. Haven't done it myself, but I can't see why it wouldn't work.

Okay, in answer to my original question, yes, they can be programmed offline. Kind of fun having extras to screw with and not worry about toasting them.

I have the Cisco 605 which is far as I have been able to tell the same as the 675 except its PCI and acts as a Network card to the Computer instead of being external and needing a network card also its just setting under my Bed collecting Dust Bunnies
