The difficulty is, Cisco no longer supports the 501--too bad too; so I don't think you can buy an upgrade to the inside hosts. In fact, I'm not sure the 501 ever supported more than 10 inside hosts. But, if it did (and I frankly do not remember--I have 2 501s w/ 10 inside host licenses sitting here that I haven't gotten around to doing anything with). You might find something on eBay: what you'd be looking for would be a 501 that comes with a license for more inside hosts.

HTH.

you will require a license or an activation key for that which is something you will have to purchase.
