[j-nsp] The Switch is ON !!!

[David Ball]

  I'll be interested to see how software upgrades go since ISSU isn't
fully operational yet (AFAIK).  The virtual chassis idea with link agg
across ports on different physical chassis provides nice redundancy,
but according to the datasheet, if the master switch is upgraded, all
other chassis in the virtual chassis are upgraded at the same time,
which seems to eliminate the redundancy that the diverse-chassis LAG
might have added.
  I'm not sure I understand the "100BASE-FX support on SFP ports: SX"
mentioned in the hardware specs either.  At first glance that tells me
that you can only use multi-mode 100M optics, but surely that can't be
the case (they even mention 1310nm 100M SFP optics near the bottom,
which would be SM).
  Otherwise, pretty slick sounding devices.
