Very Old Routers in My Lab (Cisco 2611 & 2621) flash:c2600-entbase-mz.124-25d

Peacekeeper

Hello,

 

I have these very old routers that I bought a long time ago to study for CCNA. I was wondering if there is any place that might have images that are safe to use? They all have existing images but lack some basic things. For example, I don't think any of these routers support SSH. I was hoping to be able to do some practice with that. 

 

This is the image I am currently using on my routers: c2600-entbase-mz.124-25d

 

Any thoughts or suggestions on what images might be out there and safe to use would be appreciated. 

 

Thanks!

if you like to run security features, you need higher RAM 16M (f)/64MDRAM). and model is the end of life you may not get official cisco site to download

 

once you choose the version, google the image name exactly there is many places you can find the images for Lab Purpose. (i am not much bothered about checking the validity since its not going to connect to the internet anyway).

 

if you are looking hands-on Physical that is ok, if you like to save power other hardware issues. then suggest using GNS3/PNETLab/ CML(paid) you can simulate most of the labs on your laptop. you can run the labs on go.
