Hi group,

Huawei routers were introduced into the local market sometime in the past 2
months in an asian networking exhibition called "Communicasia".

That's where I met the Huawei distributor whom had volunteered to provide a
demo set for me to play with (myself from an international mnc, has current
projects to revamp our LAN/WAN structure) and guess what, my boss is
requesting me to have a look at their routers !

The day the router came into the office, I noticed that there were no
manuals provided. After meddling with the router, I believed that there was
no need to request for one in the first place ! There will be no
requirements to load the box with IOS, it is IOS (with a bit of
differences). The whole thing was CLONED !

I'm not too sure about reversed-engineering but more on how Cisco  is going
to protect their market dominance. With boxes selling for 30-40% cheaper, I
guess lots of ppl will be rushing off to buy it.

Guess might as well I pack my bags for China to get a new set of
certifications.
