The Cisco Feature Navigator should answer all of your questions.An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made. -

This is what I have found and just want to confirm, would this be correct and recommended IOS for the following:
For the 2620xm
12.4(15)T13
c2600-ik9o3s3-mz.123-26.bin
IP/FW/IDS PLUS IPSEC 3DES BASIC
64mb/16mb flash
For the 2620 and 2621:
12.3.26(GD)
c2600-adventerprisek9-mz124-15.TB.bin
256mb/48mb flash -

Look through the exam blue prints for the exams you want to go for and match that off the features listed in the navigator. You will also want to check the memory requirement matches your router.
I usually go with an advanced IP services feature set for the lab. That will have most of your features covered.An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made. -

brewoz40,
How much RAM do you have on those routers? -

The one I use on all of my routers (2620, 2620xm and 2612) is IP PLUS - c2600-is-mz.122-46a.bin (version 12.2.46(GD)). It needs DRAM:48 MB Flash:16 MB
I've never had any problems with any CCNA requirements using this IOS. You don't need to go overboard for CCNA.
