Not sure if it's any interest of this group, but I just installed a
Huawei CX600 router this last week.
It's like Cisco quality (garbage!) for the price that Cisco should be
(low!). The commands are very similar (e.g. switchport -> portswitch,
no shut -> undo shut, etc), and you configure it almost identical to
what you'd expect on a Cisco.
The worst part about the Huawei is probably the documentation. It's
scattered all over the place, so if you want something simple (like
telnet access), it's in a completely different PDF than if you want,
say, VLAN configuration commands. Finding it all is a huge scavenger
hunt.
But hey...for like a 1/4 of the price or whatever (so I've heard), I'd
say it's worth it. :b
