Solid in the field. I've deployed into multiple industrial environments without issues.
Not as versatile as the ie3000 with the expansion modules but there seems to be a lot more integration from Cisco regarding these platforms. They also support resilient Ethernet and precision timing, making them handy for utility or manufacturing. No mc-lag. On 4 Oct. 2019 15:37, Roman Islam <romis...@gmail.com> wrote: Oh ya. It only support old SW cluster. So MC-LAG is no question. Thanks for the heads up. -N On Fri, Oct 4, 2019 at 3:30 PM Brad Peczka <b...@bradpeczka.com<mailto:b...@bradpeczka.com>> wrote: The Cisco IE series is solid gear. I’ve deployed it in various flavours, in outdoor cabinets and boxes throughout the North-West of WA, and observed failure rates are negligible – not a bad effort given the ambient can be up to 48 degrees, with temperatures in some cabinets being up to another 20-25 degrees on top of that. Enclosure selection is key to equipment survivability and I’ll throw a vote in here for those made by B&R (Pilbara SP, Lambert LB, Field FC), especially when kitted out with sunshades. Note that IE switches won’t do MC-LAG/VPC (happy to be corrected though), but should tick the rest of your boxes. Regards, -Brad.

Wondering any one on the list would like to share first hand experience to use these switches in a rugged environment. Requirements are simple and stable running state of L3 features like OSPFv3, multi-chassis etherchannel and IOS based ACL. Aware that these features very simple on standard DC grade IOS devices. What about on the ruggedized ethernet switches? Will be DIN mounted on remote site data cabinet, DC power and varying ambient temperature of -10 to 45 degree C. -Roman Optus Engineer
