Cisco GEEK question....

[phatcow]

Can a CISCO 2501 be implimented with NAT or anyform of internet sharing?

 

[Aves]

With some of the later IOS versions, I believe it can. Not 100% sure though. Anyone else?

 

[phatcow]

so it IS possible....

*prays*

maybe if this works, i dont have do deal with those gay DSL/Cable canthandlemoderatepackettraffic routers....

 

[spidey07]

why certainly it can!

IOS 11.3 had NAT included I believe. BUT, it depends on how much memory and flash the router has. If i remember 2501 only has one ethernet port?

PM me or post in networking forum.

<edit> btw, 2501 can't handle much NAT or traffic over 256 kbit. very old under powered router, the soho stuff is WAY faster.

about a third way down, O/S 11.2 or higher

Note: Basic Cisco IOS are $20, order # CD25-C-12.2=
(2500 series)

 

[phatcow]

an upgrade of the IOS is only 20 dollars?

CD25-CP-12.2= (IP PLus) $700
CD25-CHL-12.2= (IP/FW Plus IPSEC 56) $2000
