[vpn] IPSec/VPN capable IOS for Cisco 7500 router

[John Haines]

All this will give you in SSH functionality as you cannot process IPSec
across VIP cards.  If all you are looking at is testing you can get yourself
a low end box which will suffice for a proof of concept.

This is the IOS I found with the least requirements for IPSec on the
7500 router, so you will at least have to upgrade your flash. There were
about 100 listed for that router according to the IOS matrix.

Try the hardware/software compatibility list at Cisco to make sure it
has all the features you want:
