Hello!
I have a network running on Cisco Catalyst 2950's. I have a VLAN setup (ID 5) with three servers on it. The rest of the network (which I think rests on VLAN ID 0 on Cisco hardware right?) has about 200 clients as well as a Nokia firewall/gateway. If I want the computers on VLAN 5 to have access to the internet through my Nokia, how would I do that?

If you had a layer 3 switch you could:
switch(config)#vlan 900
switch(config-vlan)#int vlan 900
switch(config-if)#ip address 1.2.3.4 255.0.0.0
switch(config-if)#vlan 901
switch(config-vlan)#int vlan 901
switch(config-if)#ip address 4.3.2.1 255.0.0.0
switch(config-if)#^Z
switch#
Substitute vlan 1 and vlan 5 for 900 and 901.
first the nokia needs to support vl;an tagging ( i assume it does) add a subinterface on the nockia, set the excapsulation type and tell it that its in vlan 5. Then on the switchport that is connected to the nokia, make it into a trunk port. On ciscos website, its called 'routing on a stick', i'm sure nokia will document it in a similar way.

I believe the default vlan is vlan1. So, the 200 other devices are on vlan1.
You would have to have an interface in vlan 5 with either a router with an IP address for that subnet, or give vlan 5 an IP interface somewhere - and the same for vlan1. Then, the router/layer3 switch could route between the two subnets (vlans).
