This is the Enterprise Design Tool from NetformX. My employer has rolled
this out to all us sales engineer types, and I use it regularly.
Yes it is fairly decent, and I find it useful.
Yes there are a number of irritating bugs. For example, one cannot place a
redundant supervisor into a 6509. This is a problem that will be fixed "real
soon now"
There are devices where available blades do not show up.
But I would say in general this is very useful if you are aware of the
limits.
Oh yeah - some of the product lines are not well handled in the design tool.
Aironet, for example. Very high end switches, for example (as if I sell a
lot of those ;-> )
Also, it can be difficult to find the IOS image you want.
I've sounded negative. Let me assure that I use the tool daily, and in
general I like it a lot.
