Re: 887 with Gigabit ports and Gigabit "internet" said by aryoba:said by markysharkey:Cramer... yes I need to double check the 2960S for NAT commands. I agree it's doubtful, but I need to console in and be 100% sure...
The only Cisco Catalyst switch model that I know supports NAT is 6500 series. Since you are getting 1 Gbps connection, getting 6500 series is not a bad idea especially when you can get one for cheap on ebay Guarenteed the lower end Catalyst switches won't do NAT -- ie. 29xx, 35xx, 36xx, 37xx. 6500s will, but I recall someone once telling me it was with a VERY specific combination of SUPs and code. For ISRs and fixed switches, use them for what they are designed for -- ISR for routing and fixed switch for switching.
Here's a Q&A on the 3750s that confirms they can't do NAT
Question, who's the ISP here, if you don't mind sharing, markysharkey ?

You can always plug in FWSM to do NAT plus some security stuff  |
