Tom I can't answer your question, except to say that we run a large number of DFEs and, alone in my experience of network equipment, I have never seen one fail.
Like the Cabletron box they evolved from, they are bomb proof.

I am looking for a tool to calculate the reliability of our network components. I found a lot of online calculators that considers the MTBF, MTBR, etc. for just one piece, but I want to do this for multiple pieces and then "sum" it up. For example I would like to know the reliability of a N3, consisting of many different components like the two power supplies, chassis, blades, MGBIC ports, etc Any ideas?
