cisco 1721
I guess the key thing for People like Spivy is that the 1700 series routers only have 1 interface built in, and you need another card in one of the WIC slots to connect to your ISP -
cisco 1721
Sorry about that - I should have been a little clearer... Have a look around for router simulators. I use Boson NetSim (comes with the official Cisco CCNA training guide on CD) but there are others. www.boson.com and www.routersim.com should get you started -
NAT and Dialer on 1812 problem

Policy-Routing Failover
Hi All, I have a question about failing over when policy routing is in use. we have two sites at work that are connected both into a private WAN, and the internet via separate ADSL connections. I have built a GRE/IPSEC tunnel over the internet connections as well, and use route-maps to...
