Good day and thank you for taking the time to read this. My current setup is a Cisco 2811 router with v15.1 IOS, dhcp WAN through external cable modem. I am able to get more dhcp addresses on my subscription. I have been reading the IRB documents ...
Thank you for your time. I recently acquired a 2509 router that I plan to use as a serial device router. My question is, how do you create the virtual com ports on Windows and Linux machines to point to the TCP address:ports in the 2509 router? Is...
Good afternoon. I posted this regarding an 857W many months ago and was never able to get it to work; in fact, I was told it would not work due to the limitation on VLANs, so I stopped trying. I now own an 877W, and have been told this should w...

Running a Cisco 857W on ADSL with 8 static IP addresses (7 sequential: 11.22.33.166-172 and also 11.22.33.99). I need to do a combination of static and dynamic NAT to accomplish my goals here. What I cannot figure out is where to apply certain se...
Actually, forget it - that wont work. It turns out I do not get multiple public IPs from my ISP. I think I will need to set up a vlan with ipinip encap.
Two reasons. 1) I cannot get enough public IP addresses to assign to all of my interfaces. 2) I have a situation where I need to serve as a gateway to a public IP address block (44-net, if you are familiar with that). In order to do that with a si...

OK I understand that now. That doesn't seem very useful these days. I was under the impression that you could accomplish the reverse with this unit - connect serial devices such as modems and terminal node controllers that various computers on the ...
Thank you for your time and patience with me!I did understand that part (I think). So the 2509 has 8 "com" ports. My question is, how do my computers on the network see these ports? For example, if my windows box establishes a telnet connection to...
