Re: Hirschmann Switches?
We have a good experience with Hirschmann (now Belden) industrial switches, OpenRail RS30 and Modular MICE series. They had some pretty funny software bugs with older software versions. We are using them in MAN ring networks with heavy multicast traffic.

Re: Hirschmann Switches?
Used a MACH4002 as multicast router at 25C3 (among many other locations in the conference/building network as pure L2 devices). Worked flawlessly. -- Niels. * cbr...@bofhserver.net (Cristian Bradiceanu) [Tue 06 Jan 2009, 16:27 CET]: We have a good experience with Hirschmann (now Belden) industrial switches, OpenRail RS30 and Modular MICE series.

RE: Hirschmann Switches?
If an Industrial Ethernet switch is required it may be productive to look at Ruggedcom products. Ruggedcom has a published upper operating range of +85 C, which we have deployed in outside non-HVAC enclosures in environments where the outside ambient temperature can reach +49 to +55 C for extended periods. The L2 software is reliable, supporting rapid spanning tree, and IGMP snooping, among other features. Short and Long range SFP optics (up to 80 Km) are available that are also spec'd out at +85 C operating range. -Original Message- From: Paul Wall [mailto:pauldotw...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, January 05, 2009 9:27 PM To: NANOG list Subject: Hirschmann Switches?
