    point2point vs vpn

    You should look at an MPLS service. This would give you a full mesh topology and you only need to pull one T1 into each office (including the datacenter). I currently manage a 300+ node MPLS WAN and it's great. VPN is good too, but I wouldn't use DSL or cable. I would use an internet T1...

    Can Router Do Audio Level Test

    Not sure, but check out the IP SLA feature in the IOS. I use it for all kinds of monitoring. Hope this is helpful.

    800 series configuration for comcast cable modem

    The 800 series will work great. I would look at the 831.

    How much router do I need?

    I would probably look at a 2800 series router (handles multiple T1's). The 3800 series would probably be an over kill (can handle multiple T3's). Make sure to get an ISR router (either 2800 or 3800 series) because you can get all kinds of extra features like IPS, firewall, VOIP, etc (depending...

    I am having a problem tftping a new 12.4 IOS to my 2851 routers (the IOS is 32.1MB in size). The download goes ok for a while but then bombs out and on the router i just get a bunch of OOOOOOOOOOOO. My flash is plenty large enough, the min was 64 Meg and it's an 128 Meg flash card. I...

    How do I prevent DoS on Cisco Router ?

    Depending on which IOS you purchased (Advanced Security or higher) you can use the IPS feature to drop packets for which there are signitures. The following is a link on how to configure the IOS IPS. http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios124/124tcg/tsec_c/tsec_ips.htm

    4507 Switch

    The following link will show you how to reset the password. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/474/pswdrec_4500.shtml To backup the config just do a "copy run tftp" (you have to have a running tftp server). After you type that you will have to give it the IP address of the tftp server and the...

    Firewall

    All the models that you listed are good for a small office firewall/vpn server. I used the 800 series routers in some of my small branch offices as a firewall and site-to-site vpn router (the features are of course based on the software image you purchase with the router). The PIX 501 is just...

    4506 catalyst switch ? setup ,anyone have ?

    As Rookthis said they are basically the same. Are you running Catos or IOS on the 4500s? I have a bunch of 4500s that are running IOS. The first thing that I would do is download the latest version of IOS (I like IOS better then CatOS, probably because I have more of a router background).

    subnet advice private vs public

    I use private addressing with Dynamic NAT for all of my Internet accessible servers. It has worked out great for me. I believe it adds an extra layer of security and flexibility, although it adds a bit more complexity to your network.
