Configure 2611xm as Edge Router - Please Help! 1

[JRosario78]

Hi All,

I just got a Cisco 2611XM router from ebay. I've installed the latest IOS on the device. I would like to use this outer as my edge router. Below is waht I would like the layout to be.

Cable Modem > 2611XM > 2950 > (VLAN 1 for connection between switch and router, 1 VLAN for home network, and 1 VLAN for my LAB)

Thanks in advance!!!
JR

Just use a crossover cable from the modem to the router, go into the router interface (let's say e0), and do this...
router>en
router#conf t
router(config)#int e0
router(config-if)#ip add dhcp
If the modem is in bridge mode, you'll need to NAT. There are examples of NAT, VLAN and DHCP configs (as well as a bunch of others)---everything you need---on Cisco's website. Just Google NAT configuration sample, VLAN config example, etc.
