Agreed.  I was just giving examples of “modules”.

Lots of Chisco WIC cards out there though.

I really doubt anyone is counterfeiting PA modules for the 7206VXR considering 
how old the platform is.

  Define module?

    I’m not sure I equate “previously owned” with “grey market”.  And if Cisco 
had a problem with it, they didn’t have to sell you a Smartnet contract for the 
used gear.  Pretty good actually selling a full year HW/SW maintenance contract 
just so you can upgrade the SW.

    What I won’t do is buy the “new” Cisco modules from Hong Kong that are 
probably counterfeit.  Even if they are made from the same parts in the same 
factory.

      I really don't see the point of trying to prevent shipments of 
telecom/IT/networking equipment to Iran, or punishing anybody for selling 
telecom/IT/networking gear to Iran:



      1) If people in Iran really want the stuff they will simply arrange a way 
to buy it from Dubai. 


      2) Isn't it a good thing to ship any sort of computer/networking/ISP gear 
into Iran?  There's a very active community of Iranians who have come up with 
local Farsi language documents/training guides and information on how to run 
Tor, how to get around government internet censorship, move VPN traffic through 
their ISPs' blackholes. Iranians want to read unfettered media. The US 
government has a whole Farsi language division funded from the Voice of 
America/BBG (Broadcasting Board of Governors) that is trying to reach Iranians. 
 There are a shitload of Iranians that want to use Facebook, Whatsapp, Skype, 
etc.  More communication with the outside world is good.

          Although expecting Chinese companies to obey our sanctions against 
Iran and not use tricks to get around them is probably unrealistic.  But it’s a 
little humorous reading how ZTE copied the tricks of an unnamed company that is 
clearly Huawei.

          Some of it is bull, but the blatant duplication of Cisco is 
indisputable.

          Has anybody taken a look at the number of government employees China 
has by any chance? What about the number of DoD and general federal workforce? 
Do those members of the workforce - do their policies and beliefs fall 100% in 
line with things the government as a whole says or does?

          You guys realize that half the shit you've heard about Huawei was 
bullshit put for by our government who were acting as mouthpieces for Cisco 
which was later RECANTED by our own government in just a few short years and 
then used in FEDERALLY FUNDED PROJECTS, right?

          I'm curious if maybe Google, Amazon, and Facebook have done anything 
"bad" in your eyes... Since they have direct connections to the CIA and NSA. 
They have an incredible amount of data and control.

          What's that, the NSA has intercepted routing and switching products 
mid shipment and modified them before sending them out? What's that, the NSA 
was caught weakening encryption protocols, the Linux kernel, and put backdoors 
in equipment from companies like Fortigate, Cisco, and Juniper - putting our 
own countries citizens and world governments at risk in the process?

          I'm not saying that Huawei is any kind of saint, or that they haven't 
done shitty things in the past - my problem is you and others are insinuating 
that every employee Huawei has ever had is some kind of scumbag while 
simultaneously holding up a different mirror to our own  government and its 
employees.

          For fukes sake get some goddamn perspective.

            I'd tend to agree, hence my concern. I'm not sure that just having 
one of the lead people from Huawei is any connection other than the obvious. 
This person could have had issues with the company as well, and left as a 
result.

              I'm assuming that $1/month is for some kind of cloud based 
EPC.... you can most likely buy your own instead, but that seems to be one of 
the more costly parts of doing LTE.

              Good interview.  A couple things I'm wondering / concerned about 
though.  First of all, what's with the $1/month/CPE?  I realize it isn't a ton 
of money, just seems like an expense that shouldn't be there.  Also, I'm a 
little wary of the Huawei tie-in - although I haven't researched the specific 
"fellow" that they're talking about.
