How can I install bacl to back a Cisco Router 2500 to a 2611 when there is no wan interface on the back of the 2611 router? I have the cross over cable ready. Need help with the configuration back to back
thanks
 
Im guessing you need a AUI Transceiver if you want to go ethernet to ethernet. The older cisco 2500 had AUI connections for ethernet. Make sure they are both 10bT. If they are not you will need an autosensing hub.

you really con't do serial to serial since the 2500 had the old Ciso serial connecters for RS232 or V.35. The new wics have RJ45 connections for the Serial interfaces.

FYI,

The WIC-1T does not have an RJ-45, you are thinking of either the WIC-1DSU-T1 or WIC-1DSU-56K. You can buy a serial DCE to DTE interface cable to go between the 2500 series and the 2611 WIC card.


By the way, was I lied to when they said routing was fun?
 
i found the cables on ebay for 10 bucks apiece. db60-db60
