X-Sender: victor@mp-dbs.mp.intralex To: isp@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Router substitution Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi! I want to build a router upon a FreeBSD box, in substitution of a CISCO 2501 router which went dead. The CISCO was connected to the external network by means of a Tellabs Crossnet/240 NTU, using one of the serial ports. What kind of (FreeBSD supported) serial card can provide the same type of serial port? What software, besides routed or gated, will I need to accomplish the task? Anyone tried this already? Is it a good idea? Thanks in advance for your help! Best regards, Victor M. Carranza G. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
