If you ever have a piece of Cisco hardware that does not show all its
interfaces it is almost certainly that it does not have enough DRAM in it,
or the version of IOS on it does not support that hardware. The
hardware-software compatibility matrix on CCO will point out the latter -and
sometimes the former!

Anyway, your 2509 will run ANY version of IOS you want so long as you give
it enough memory. If it is CiscoPro equipment, upgrade its BIOS image with
the RSL software on CCO. Once you have done that it will run any code the
regular routers will run.
