Apart from "it's big, beige and heavy" I guess you could try Nortel's
website....
http://www39.nortelnetworks.com/products/5000BSN/
It uses internally defined "ISPs" which create a new router process
for every customer profile (not too good for CPU load). The customer
then has access to change settings such as security, QoS,
web-redirects and access the OOB logs themselves. It is 95% GUI
driven but does have a CLI written by some ex-cisco bods so it will
be familiar to most people - to be honest tho you'll just put an IP
address in there and then go to the GUI.
It has a 10G switch fabric but has that annoying limitation that
only linecards in certain slots can use that bandwidth.
My opinion of the software - flaky. Avoid OSPF. Just MO tho.
Cheers
Charlie
