Has anyone seen the recent news about Extreme Network's "ExtremeWare XOS"? As reported in Network World, it is Linux based and runs on their line of BlackDiamond 10K Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switches. I could find nothing on Extreme's web site about it, though.
NW quotes Extreme as saying "modifications were made in the Linux kernel to improve the packet forwarding capabilities of the software, as well as hardening its security...". They also say that "Extreme says that in accordance with the GPL, it will be pushing its changes to Linux back to the open-source community". I'm wondering what LEAF developers think about this? The article also mentioned how pleased developers of the XORP project were. There was a previous article posted about that project too. Can someone tell me if/how XORP and LEAF are related? Do they share resources or benefit from one another's work? --Cal Webster ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Sleepycat Software Learn developer strategies Cisco, Motorola, Ericsson & Lucent use to deliver higher performing products faster, at low TCO. http://www.sleepycat.com/telcomwpreg.php?From=osdnemail3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
