FRAMINGHAM (10/17/2003) - We asked vendors to supply two switch chassis, up to four 10G Ethernet interfaces, and a total of 24 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. As in an earlier review, we assessed device performance in terms of pure 10G bit/sec throughput, delay and jitter; 1G bit/sec throughput, delay and jitter across a 10 Gigabit backbone; failover times; and quality-of-service enforcement. For this review, we also added enhanced failover tests and new events for IPv6 forwarding and routing.
