Cisco sent us one of these "neutral, unbiased comparisons a few years ago when we were evaluating routers. The other guy looked very bad until we realized that the other guy was configured to do RED and the Cisco was doing tail-drop.
Cisco responded with an "Oops. We'll take that paper off of our web pages. Very sorry about the bogus information, but it was all the fault of the company that we hired to do the testing." It might have been since Cisco defaults to tail-drop and the other vendor defaults to RED. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
