Engineer to your requirements. Cisco and Juniper are good vendors to have for variety.

OTOH, Cisco is still stuck in "we have too many operating systems and we spend half our resources with BU in-fighting" mode - which, I guess, will now be fixed by firing 10.000 folks from engineering so they won't get in the way of the in-fighting anymore... Right now, I'm not sure I'm trusting either company enough. gert -- USENET is *not* the non-clickable part of WWW! //www.muc.de/~gert/ Gert Doering - Munich, Germany [email protected] fax: +49-89-35655025 [email protected] _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
