Hello Bruce, and thank you for your reply.

Seconded for Pfsense -- although I doubt the Cisco hardware would be
compatible with FreeBSD, and even if it is , I wouldn't want to use it in a
production environment without thorough testing.
If someone can provide more detailed hardware specs, including the chipsets
and processor details of the cisco hardware , im sure we could realistically
evaluate the feasibility.
Please see:
https://bsdforge.net/cisco-data/
for a list of manuals I have available for download on these
(and similar).
I'm very, very happy with pfSense. It's a case of the folk behind it
having followed an software appliance-style model and that's what
makes it stable.
I know Peter Grehan was looking at getting FreeBSD onto the Cisco 827
a while back.
That's good news. I'll have to see if I can get more info on that.
I just purchased a "lot" of cisco *DSL/routers on ebay, in an effort
to push this project forward (I can experiment on these with less concern).
So my list of HW now includes:
* 3 - 802's
* 2 - 1604's
* 1 - 1721
* 2 - 837's
Thank you again for your input.

The PowerPC port has gone some way towards this, but I don't see folk
installing it on old Cisco hardware yet... unless the knowledge gets
out there.
cheers
BMS
