for OPX-lite ports. and of course, uplink ports cost money too. if you have a local switch with plenty of uplink ports, and come up with a good way to manage your devices, then multiple vg224s might be your best bet.<br>

I'm not totally against 2 boxes but I was liking having it builtin to<br>
the router for consolidation on the 2600 I can use the fe or wic slots<br>
for wan connectivity along side the voice connectivity. Not every site<br>
has T1 so a channel bank is to inflexible. Looking at the VG224, that<br>
doesnt look bad, looks like a IAD for the most part, dual fe is nice<br>
too.<br>
