Follow up...

Presuming the 2509 doesn't support ospf with the ios version I have for it...

Can I...

Use a single 4-port 2610XM as both frame switch AND a hub or spoke router by connecting it to itself? I would presume that I should be able to...

Thoughts?

TIA,

First, your 2509 doesn't support OSPF. Cisco uses boilerplates in their IOSes so often you will see a command available when the underlying code doesn't implement the command.

Second, Yes you can use your 2610 as a frame switch and a router. That is commonly done for lab environments.
