Guys,
I'm getting back into my lab and I bought three of these cards back in Sepetember but for what I'm not sure. I think I was going to use in the Cisco 2600 routers and one of them in the Cisco 1721 router so that the one 10/100 fast ethernet (FE) port on the 1721 would go directly to my HP Procurve. But ICM came up and I switched tracks....
My question is this: can I use these 10/100 module in both of the 1721 router (edge) and the 2600 routers (inter-vlan) as uplinks and then OSPF between the 2600's, there is 4 port so my thought is one for (2600 router)-to-(1700 router) uplink in-place of the serial wic's and and then one for OSPF between the 2600's?
From the looks of this Cisco knowledgebase of the 4ESW, http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps221/products_data_sheet09186a00801c749d.html, it supports inter-vlan routing and OSPF, so it should also support uplinks in-place of a serial wic. - I'm really just looking for a faster uplink solution.
Logically I know what I want to accomplish, just not sure if it's possible on these FE wic's.
