[chbot] Cisco router loan

[william fleete]

I have some experience configuring Cisco routers and switches, rudimentary, but probably enough to get it up and running. If you can get to the console port (9600b serial, probably need the special cable with the RJ45 and DE-9 connector) and get into exec or privileged exec mode do a "show version" and a "show startup-config"

However, having looked into it, I see what I have is a Cisco managed switch rather than a router (CiscoCatalyst 3500XL). The guy giving it away felt it had value for 'CCNA practice' and 'works fine'. I gather it runs some manner of OS, being managed, and presumably a Cisco one given his comment - but that is as much as I know.
