发帖数: 1055 | 3 I agree that Vyatta is a tiny fish, it started with repackaging open-source
network software (routing/security/vpn) and make them run on commercial x86
servers, the idea is good and it works, it has customers because not every
one can afford (is willing to) to pay premium to get Cisco gears.
Regarding Brocade box that can do Internet core routing, From Brocade
website:
"The groundbreaking Brocade MLXe router leverages the technology of six
generations of highly resilient service provider routers deployed in over 9,
000 of the most demanding service provider networks worldwide—from IP
transit, mobile backhaul, content distribution, and Internet Exchange Points
(IXPs) to service provider data center networks. With the Brocade MLXe
router, service providers gain a highly scalable, proven Carrier Class
platform designed to deliver maximum ROI."
Or you have special definition of what an Internet core router should be?

发帖数: 1953 | 5 That's probably a fire sale for Vyatta.
And for BRCD, it gets a new fancy SDN hat
so it can ask a better price for itself.

发帖数: 17771 | 6 even in low end market, Vyatta cannot compete with Adtran. To me, Vyatta can
survive by either OEM or SDN, then at certain point, somebody would buy it
. So, aquired by Brocade is really the best for this company. The reason is
simple, it sounds stupid, but it's very true, and I believe it. That is, the
market needs only 3 companies. All others are just 打酱油的。
As for Internet routers, I would call CRS, GSR, ASR 9K Internet routers. or
equivalents from Juniper.

True, but for the sake of argument, when mobile handset market had 3
companies, iOS and Andriod were unheard of, look who are those 3 companies
now, and can you predict who those 3 companies will be in next 5 or 10 years?

发帖数: 1055 | 10 Why not? at least Brocade claims it can do Internet core routing, Please
share your thoughts with me and others so everybody can learn. To me, the
box is designed to be carrier grade, it can hold 1M routes, does forwarding
in line rate, has solid BGP implementation, has decent MPLS implementation,
I am sure it can fit some providers bill.

发帖数: 17771 | 11 in mobile world, it's still very messy now, so the 3 would be android, iOS,
and wp8, all the other webos, blackberry would be 打酱油的
3-company rule is more realistic for a mature market
years?

发帖数: 271 | 12 I read AMS-IX, LINX, Equinix, HE, AOL and Limelight are using Brocade (XMR/
MLX).
lol ALU is considered as 打酱油的? | s*****g
发帖数: 1055 | 13 I want to support your claim, but the way XMR/MLX is deployed in Internet
Exchanges is not really considered as a core-router role, it is used to
construct high-density/high performance L2 fabric (native L2 and MPLS L2VPN)
