I used Enterasys at my last job... great equipment, no matter the cost. Compares very favorably to Cisco stuff, better in some cases.

They're pretty nice, and have some good features for the price, and the customer support is the best I've gotten from any vendor. I originally installed C2s, but had several of them fail, so Enterasys swapped all of them for C3s at no charge, and sent an engineer onsite to help me swap 'em out. The C3s have been solid so far.

Sean Rector, MCSE From: Chinnery, Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2008 1:10 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Network core switch My old Cisco 4006 is nearing end of life where Cisco won't even support it. So, I need to put it in a budget request for a replacement core switch. I've already researched possible Cisco replacements but I wanted to ask the group for their opinions regarding other company's products such as Foundry. 95% of all network traffic passes through this switch which is a layer 3, btw. 48 gig ports, 6 or so gbics and the balance will be 100 meg.
