Upgrading Router question?

| I am upgrading the company router from a 2503 to a 3640. My question is when the new router gets here do I have to configure the whole thing over or could I just copy the IOS config from my 2503 to a TFTP and then copy it onto the 3640. Network configuration is not changing...just upgrading the router
Thanks..

| just copy and paste to note pad...should take it unless your ios on 2503 is old ver that has different configs... | |
|
| The interface types/numbers won't match. | |

The port identifiers on the 3640 will not be the same as they are on the 2503. E0 on the 2503 will be something like e0/0 on the 3640, the serial and ISDN ports will also be different. These will have to be edited in the config before you paste it in.

| I found out my boss inserts a card?? into the router. This has the basic info configured on the router, then he can copies from a TFTP down the correct configs. This saves a ton of work. I can't remember the name of the card and it is for Bay Networks equip but I'm sure Cisco would have the same technology. | |

| I know that somethings like interfaces would not match but general info like access list and configs that you would place on a router for security such as
no service tcp-small-servers
no service udp-small-servers
no service finger
no cdp running
no ip domain-lookup
no cdp enable
no ip directed-broadcast
no ip source-route
no ip bootp server
no mop enabled
no ip identd
would work...
The rest of the configs manually should take 5 min...Just config the interfaces, vty,console,etc manually. |
