Recommendation for Cisco Router

Everlife

Hi everyone,

With inevitable IPv6 switchover moving into high-gear we are interested in replacing our Sonicwall 4060 with something from Cisco. We need something that can provides IDS, Hybrid/Dual Stack IPv6/IPv4 support, up to 75 VPN users, VLANs, and multiple WAN interfaces.

I plan on doing further research into whatever models are suggested, but I figured there was no better place to ask for advice!

Thanks!

Thanks Priston. The first link told exactly which routers supported IPv6.

If you need all that, I would suggest getting an ASA and a router. Depending on the size of your org and what all you intend on doing will depend on what kind of router. You may be able to get away with a 2900 or 3900 series router or you may need a bigger player like a 7200 or 6500 series.

Thanks Panzer. We're a relatively small organization (less than 75 employees), but we have a fairly complex network due to the type of work we do.

We've been running a SonicWall Pro 4060 for the past few years and it's done its job nicely. Unfortunately, last time I checked, SonicWall had not officially announced support for IPv6. I want to be proactive about this and would like to have a few models in mind for when we are ready to upgrade the router.

I'll look into the models you suggested.

Thanks!
