Pretty crazy thinking how much data they can theoretically move.
I've seen references to 100Gi and 400Gi but I only see topology and it's hard to tell what's real as we can mock up data. A LAG built with 100Gi is pretty wild, 400Gi LAGs seems really farfarfarout. ;-) As far as complexity, how about 'white boxes' where you load on Vendor X's OS on a generic network device and suddenly the network box looks like vendor X despite not even having that hardware in the box. Add SDN and IP over IP and vlans (and vlans in vlans) and I have some really interesting discussions with the SEs. From morse code speed (28,8 bps perhaps) to 400Gi. in a span of ~200 years. -- Linux Home Automation Neil Cherry ncherry@linuxha.com http://www.linuxha.com/ Main site http://linuxha.blogspot.com/ My HA Blog Author of: Linux Smart Homes For Dummies
