Hi All,
Please I will like to know which of the Router IOS has functionality similar to the Cisco Catalyst 6509. I am setting up a test environment at work using GNS3 routers.
Thanks.

Hello Raheem,
a C6509 is a multilayer switch that works in hardware using dedidated ASIC chips.
You cannot emulate it in GNS3.
Using a router with an etherswitch network module would allow you to use SVI interfaces on the emulated node, but all other aspects like C6500 QoS will not be covered.
Hope to help
