Documentation
The Cisco 2500 series routers provide a variety of models designed for branch office and remote site environments. These routers are typically fixed configuration with at least two of the following interfaces:
Ethernet (AUI)
10BaseT Ethernet hub
Token Ring
Synchronous serial
Asynchronous serial
ISDN BRI
Cisco 2500 routers come with Flash EPROM technology for simplified software maintenance. These systems support a variety of Cisco IOS software feature sets, so you can choose a feature set that supports your specific protocol environment. The software feature sets range from an IP and bridging-only to the full array of Cisco`s software functionality, including APPN and RMON.
Mission-specific models contain less memory and less hardware functionality to support a subset of protocols. Each mission-specific model can be upgraded to full router capability by downloading a new Cisco IOS software feature set and, if necessary, adding memory.
Cisco 2500 series models can be divided into the following categories:
Single LAN routers — Models 2501, 2502, 2503, 2504, 2520, 2521, 2522 and 2523
Mission-specific, entry-level routers — Models 2501CF, 2501LF, 2502CF, 2502LF, 2503I, 2504I, 2520CF, 2520LF, 2521CF, 2521LF, 2522CF, 2522LF, 2523CF and 2523LF
Router/hub combinations — Models 2505, 2507 and 2516
Access servers — Models 2509 to 2512 (refer to the "Cisco 2500 Series Access Servers" section in the "Access Servers" chapter in the catalog)
Dual LAN routers — Models 2513, 2514 and 2515
Modular routers — Models 2524 and 2525 (optional integrated DSU/CSU or NT-1)
All the Cisco 2500 series models support the features listed in the following table.

Hardware Product Numbers
All Cisco 2500 models include a minimum of 8 MB of Flash memory, except for the mission-specific routers which include 4 MB or 8 MB of Flash memory, depending upon the Cisco IOS software release you order. Additional Flash memory can be purchased to allow for dual banking or potential future code growth.
There are two types of DRAM memory in the Cisco 2500 series routers: primary and shared (packet). Primary memory is used to store the operating configuration, routing tables, caches, and queues. Shared memory is used to store incoming and outgoing packets. In the table below, the physical configuration column lists the amount of DRAM SIMM memory supported. The system usage column lists how the system allocates the total DRAM memory installed.

Mission-specific routers are entry-level routers that are based on standard Cisco 2500 hardware. However, mission-specific routers contain less memory than standard models and run reduced software images designed for CFRAD, LAN FRAD, and ISDN applications. These reduced software images disable unused ports. Mission-specific routers can be upgraded to full standard-model functionality by purchasing additional software and memory.

The Cisco 2524 and 2525 provide LAN and WAN access in a low-cost modular router platform that can grow with your internetworking needs. The Cisco 2524 offers an Ethernet (AUI or 10BaseT) LAN connection, and the Cisco 2525 offers a Token Ring (STP or UTP) LAN connection. Both routers can accommodate up to three WAN modules — two synchronous serial and one ISDN.
The choice of synchronous serial WAN modules is as follows:
2-wire, switched, 56-kbps DSU/CSU
4-wire, 56/64-Kbps DSU/CSU
Fractional T1/T1 DSU/CSU
Five-in-one synchronous serial
The choice of ISDN WAN modules is as follows:
ISDN BRI
ISDN with integrated NT1 device
The ISDN WAN modules are keyed so that you cannot insert them into the synchronous serial WAN slots. A blank slot cover is installed over unused slots.
