Re: why pick Cisco? Wow... you have ideas, but not much knowledge. Sounds like the marketing teams have gotten to you. I use 3Com switches in our datacenters, and they perform flawlessly so far up to their 1Gbps potential and now we're moving on to 10G with the same hardware.
I use linux servers for some of our high-traffic websites (Alexa rakings higher than 4000), and Windows on others. These are sites with over 150,000 uniqe visitors per day, and neither Linux or Windows is more or less stable. Each has its purpose, but it isn't a superiority issue.
In one installation, we had to replace Cisco equipment because it couldn't remain stable at 100Mbps - this was after two ISO certified technicians did their best. Faulty equipment? Perhaps. But the 3Com stuff hasn't failed us yet. I'd say Cisco is NOT #1 at this point, just another choice. And now with the aquisition of Linksys, they are more like the McDonalds of routing. |

San Francisco, CA | The 3Com switches do it for us. We just setup two VLANS and route the second one over the first and voila - layer 3 routing baby! |
