I'm attempting to setup two Cisco 2501 routers to study for the CCNA. Since I'm a bit new to Cisco equipment, could someone give me a general outline on how to setup the 2 2501s to route traffic between
2 networks?I've done this numerous times with FreeBSD or Linux boxes, but I'm somewhat lost on the Cisco 2501s. So far, I've configured and brought up Ethernet0 on both routers. One is configured as 192.168.1.1/24 while the other interface is configured at 172.16.255.1/16. Each interface is connected to a Cisco 1924 switch, each switch is isolated by itself. Finally I have a DCE->DTE cable running from Serial0 of router 1 to Serial0 of router 2. Is there anything else I should do? I've got to be missing something simple...
The following is a rough idea of my setup:
ST = straight through cable

Thanks for the help.
