Current setup:
3660 router has a Serial 4T going out to 4 remote sites.

Needed setup:
Need to move Serial 4T to 2612 router.
2612 router will connect via E0 port to inside Cat3524 switch which is connected to 3660 router's E0/0.

Scenerio:
3660 router connects to WAN via various connection types
Cat3524 (inside)switch connects to 3660 router via Ethernet
2612 router connects to Cat3524 switch via Ethernet
4 remote locations connect to 2612 router via Serial

Question:
Will this 2612 config work?

Looks fine to me, a switch doesn't route anything (unless using a MLS) just forwards packets. The ip addy on a switch is mainly there for management, troubleshooting.
 
New config, will it work?

Why are you changing to Static routes? It will work just wondering why you would want to do that?
 
Because the 2612 router is setting inside the local network. Therefore, it only needs to go to the default gateway(3660 router) if it cannot find the host on the local network. It does not need to receive routing updates.
 
kmmink,
Are you sure the serial 4T module will work in the 2600. I know they are the same fit but there are some modules that work in the 3600, but not in the 2600 (ie. NM-1E2W). I think the 4xserial module for the 2600 is NM-4A/S. Maybe its the same as NM-4T but best to check before you get ahead of yourself.
