Yeah,
Extreme there is another company. These switches are expensive. We got some of
these and they have a little problem. A bug that Summit never figured out, where
all the ports on the left hand side will just shut by itself for no reason. We
don't even use them now. It's like losing 25% of all your
ports.

The people I work with rave about Extreme anyone
got good opinions about this. Layer 2/3 switching and Wire Speed seem to
be the buzz words. Anyone seen or have opinions on straightforward
reliability, build quality and basic failures like PSU's etc shout
out!

Like everything else, When it's new everyone wants a piece,
can you talk to anyone who has used it for at least 5 years, I doubt it.
Whoever is placing the future of their company on this brand new
technology better think twice.
If you are smart, you better have an ole
reliable Cisco box sitting close by, just in case Juniper comes up with an
error, the technical support has not even seen yet, and You wouldn't know
that would you, who can you call and compare with, NOBODY.
New
technology is fine and good, but rest assure there will be bugs, don't even
fool yourself, because if you do, YOU won't be in this field very long.
Just a thought, a technical ONE.

My company wants to buy Juniper routers instead of
Cisco. Having never worked with Juniper equipment before I don't know
why it's so good.
I'm told that it's faster, cheaper and has a smaller
foot print? What's a foot print? Is it really better then Cisco?
