[e-nsp] OT - Design guides

[Smales, Robert]

Hi Guys,
 
Wouldn't Cisco's *design* guides work for any L2/L3 network? I would have thought it would be configuration guides which would be vendor-specific.
 
Just my 2c.

Unfortunately this is a big drawback of Extreme. Basically the only thing that exists (as far as I know), is what´s listed below. As you mentioned, Cisco has a ton of good examples of real life problems with solutions in different type of network designs. Extreme has ..... the config guide ... and command reference, and some error decoder document ...and some case studies that only really says "hey look how good/fast our stuff is compared to Cisco"
 
Extreme should really put some effort into expanding their documentation as Cisco has done so well.

Hello,

 

On the website you can find the User Guide that have lots of examples and visio templates too.

Hello List,

Does anyone know of any great sources (books, sites, visio layouts, etc)  for design guides in a service provider environment for extreme.  I know cisco has an entire section devoted to this on their website.  I looked all over extreme maybe I am overlooking something?

I am interested in the following:

Redundancy
Resiliency
High Availability
Reliability
Scalability
VLANs
Trunking
MPLS / VPN
for starters

Any help or design guides or layout you may have would be appreciated.
