Thanks for the reply, I've already tried using that link and also the feature comparison tool to compare ipbase-k9 vs advipservices-k9 and just got a slew of features that I didn't fully understand. It looked mainly like there was a lot of VoIP stuff? I'm not looking for a full breakdown of all the features. Just some semi-broad categories of things that I'd be missing out on with just ipbase-k9. Like would I not be able to run a vpn with ipbase-k9? Would I have ssh capability? I think that's what k9 implies but I'm not sure. If it has EIGRP and OSPF that's a good start at least. I just don't want to buy a router and then find out a couple months down the line it can't do something that I thought of to try and do or be unable to do something that comes up in the CCNA course of study for 200-105 or CCNA Security.

Hi, I have a cisco lab setup at home for my CCNA studies. I'm currently studying for the 200-105 exam. I passed the 100-105 exam in February. I had the idea of integrating my lab network with my home network. My lab network is all 10/100 ethernet connections. I've got 3 x 2811s running 15.1-4M advipservices-k9 and 3 x 3560s running 12.2-44 advipservices-k9. My home network is all gigabit ethernet connections. I'm looking for a 1921 or 2901 as they're both 1U units and I only have a few U left on my rack. I'm also looking at a 1921 or a 2901 because they have gigabit ethernet ports. I've been looking on ebay at refurbished and used routers as I don't have a very large budget. All of the ones I've seen come with just ipbase-k9 it looks like. I tried using the feature comparison tool on Cisco's website to compare the firmwares and had a hard time interpreting the differences. It looked like it was mainly just a bunch of VoIP stuff which I'm not dealing with at all. What differences would I notice between the advipservices firmware on my lab devices and the ipbase-k9 firmware? Is the 1921 or the 2901 better? I think the 2901 is preferable since it can have it's ram expanded while the 1921 is stuck at 512MB maximum. I don't think I'd necessarily ever need more than that but I like to have options for upgrading on the chance that I start doing more with my networks in the future. My goal with this project is to make it so that I can talk to my lab devices from my pc without having to disconnect my pc from the internet. Is this even a worthwhile goal? I think it would be a fun project to practice setting up a router for a real world usage scenario instead of just doing labs. I think I know enough to make it work at this point? The way I'm seeing this is I would setup the router with EIGRP or OSPF and a couple subnets. One subnet would lead off to my lab network and those three routers and switches and the other subnet would lead off to my home network. Right now on my home network I have a couple stand alone network drives, a wifi router, a laptop and a pc and several wired and wireless devices. I'm getting a rackmount Netgear 4-bay NAS with dual gigabit ports and a 24-port HP gigabit switch in the next couple of weeks when my friend can bring them over to me. I've got a sonicwall on the perimeter that I want to replace with an ASA but I haven't taken the CCNA Security course yet. That's next term after I finish my CCNA and my CCDA this term :)

So on my 2811s that I have in my lab I have advipservices running. What's going to be the difference between the advipservices vs what I guess is just ipbase w/ crypto on the 2901s? I was looking on the feature navigator (https://cfn.cloudapps.cisco.com/ITDIT/CFN/jsp/compareImages.jsp) and put in a 15.1M and got a whole bunch of features but I don't really know what all those features are lol... I'm guessing ipbase will be fine for what I want to do with it? I saw a bunch of VoIP features I won't be needing anytime soon.

My apologies if this is in the wrong community. I'm studying for the 200-105 exam, passed the 100-105 last month. I've got a small lab network setup with 3 x 2811s and 3 x 3560s. I've gotten pretty good with them and enjoy playing around and making up networks. It's a bit of a nuisance though because it's isolated from my home network so if I want to put some hosts on my lab network I have to unhook my pc and laptop from my home network and hook them up to the lab network. My lab network's ethernet ports are all 10/100s. My home network has an old sonicwall firewall that has a couple gigabit ports and some 10/100 ports and then I've got an unmanaged 8-port gigabit switch hooked into a gigabit port and a wifi router hooked into the gigabit switch. The sonicwall is just kinda passive, it doesn't have any active security subscriptions so it's not doing a whole lot right now. A friend of mine is selling me a netgear ready nas 4-bay rack mount nas that has two gigabit ports and an 24-port HP gigabit rack mount switch to expand my home network. I had the thought of either replacing the sonicwall with a refurbished 2901 or putting a 2901 behind the sonicwall to run my network. I'm pretty sure I can configure the 2901 properly. My question is this, what I'm finding is mostly 2901s that say they've got k9 or k9 sec. I did some googling and found other topics on this board where people were referred to the feature comparison tool but I didn't know enough information to properly fill it out to get any information. I picked some #s that looked familiar and got some results but I had a hard time interpreting what all the features were. I don't need a line by line analysis but can someone please break down the major differences in features between them please? I think the k9 sec had vpn features it looked like but I couldn't figure out much else. Is there really any point to this? I'd really like to replace the sonicwall with a 2901 but I'm not sure if I know enough about IOS yet to properly configure the 2901 in such a way. Would there really be a point to putting the 2901 behind the sonicwall and using that as the heart of my conjoined network? It seems like a fun project but I don't want to get in over my head.
