It is a fact of life (or at least a very widespread opinion) that very 
little of what anybody else does is "as proprietary" as things that 
cisco does, but is instead viewed as "more proprietary and doesnt 
interoperate with cisco equipment". Whether this is good or bad, earned 
or unearned is left as an exercise to the reader.
