When I sent my last post I assumed that the Linux box was going to also be a firewall, but you don't state that?  Do you really need the Linux router?  Why not just let the Cisco 25xx do all your routing?

Will I cause any problem to the internet when I am doing this?  The reason for this is to use Linux's Class Based Queueing for bandwidth management.
