[c-nsp] Router Suggestion for console access?

[Phil Bedard]

If you only need to dial into one of the devices, any router with an  
AUX port will work, and then
you can use the local network to access other devices.   If I were  
you though, I'd wire up console
access to each device individually from some aggregator, like a  
2511.   There are also other 3rd party
serial console devices that work from companies like Raritan, etc.  
but they aren't going to be as cheap as an old 2511
or Portmaster.
