why not just get a Console Management Switch? It's much cheaper than buying
a router to manage other routers.
Here's a pretty good brand: WTI, their website is at www.wti.com
The cheapest one I think is a 4 port cosole that costs around $90.00 at CDW.
these boxes have a 10BaseT interface so you can telnet to it (it supports
it) and control the routers connected to its console.
Way cheaper this way... hope this helps.
