Is upgrading as simple as have enough flash and buying the image or is
certain routers to old to ugrade. I was looking to upgrade to ver.12. I have
looked oncisco's sight but with no luck on finding the anwser. I'm fairly
new to cisco I have written easy config file but for upgrading ios I'm a
newbie.

Any help
Thanks
Trent

As long as you stay with IOS products it is a fairly straight forward,
and well documented, process.

The Cisco 2500 series are a bit different, and the CiscoPRO series, an
older OEM 2500, can be quite interesting...

Have fun!

For the most part, it's making sure you have enough RAM and flash.

And money. I looked up the relicensing fee for the 2500 series
a couple of weeks ago... it was more than the cost of buying a brand new
837 VPN Bundle. The 2500 is modular where the 837 isn't, but still
I get the impression they are trying to discourage some of the older
technology.
