[f-nsp] Where have all the MLX/XMR users gone to?

[i3D.net - Martijn Schmidt]

I think everyone is phasing out their X-scalability hardware in anticipation of the global routing table growing larger than 786k IPv4 routes. These boxes don't have a long life ahead of them as a DFZ router, unless you only use X2-scalability cards in your chassis.. and with operators essentially being forced to upgrade to a completely different platform (SLX or $other_vendor), Brextreme's advantage of being the incumbent vendor in the network is pretty much completely negated.

Finally, as a BDA, let me tell you that being stabbed in the back when it comes to my certification record has not benefited my opinion of the new owner(s) of the Brocade diaspora. Why they decided to not only pull the plug on the entire Brocade education program, but also delete the historical certification database from CertMetrics, is beyond me. It has become impossible to check the validity of years' worth of Brocade credentials.

Best regards,
Martijn
