Gideon,

I think we found the issue. The chassis came with the NM-1E2W module. We're
replacing that with one of the FE modules. Also, we're putting an IOS on
there with the IP Plus feature set. It should work after that. Since those
cards are older, it was tricky to find compatible Network Modules and IOS. I
think we're on the right track now. Thanks very much for your advice.
