"Microsoft is currently performing rigorous testing of the Nexus 7000 Series for security, manageability and performance in a lab environment"
I doubt Microsoft would be doing any type of WAN/mpls/backbone testing on it, just from the small amount of information available it looks to be good for combining your SAN switch fabrics with your lan/data switch fabric ... does this just seem like a bad idea to anyone else?

It will be interesting to see more doco from Cisco on what this box can actually do and find out where Cisco plans to slot it into the family tree (perhaps the illegitimate child of Mr. CRS-1 and Mrs. 7609?) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Storey Sent: Tuesday, 29 January 2008 3:03 PM To: Pete Templin Cc: mack; cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net Subject: Re: [c-nsp] Nexus 7000 > Call me crazy, but I got no sense that this new thingy can route, from > the little video or any of the data sheets.

I saw mention of VRFs, OSPFv2 and 3, and mentions of IPv4 and IPv6 among the existing documents, but no mention of PPS or anything else routing related. Hopefully more docos are on the way which will detail all of this. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
