Abstract

Alcatel-Lucent commissioned The Tolly Group to evaluate four of its enterprise-class LAN switches for interoperability with other brand switches.

Engineers subjected the switches to advanced LAN services tests, including support for auto-negotiation, 802.1p/Q VLAN tag propagation, RIP v2, OSPF, BGP, Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Jumbo Frames. The Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850-P24X and OmniSwitch 9800 achieved interoperability with other switches.

Tests were conducted in March/April 2007 at Terremark Worldwide Inc.’s world-class NAP of the Americas facility in Miami.
