I am going to setup a test environment with 2 Cisco routers so I can learn more about getting around the commands and configuration process. My question is this - in order to connect the 2 routers should I use a hub or a switch?
Thanks.

Either one will do. But a serial crossover cable and a managed cisco switch will teach you a lot more.


It is what it is!!

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately I do not have a spare Cisco switch to work with otherwise I would do that.
