RE: lug-bg: Linux za Cisco ustroistva

[bkrosnov@xxxxxxxx (Boyan Krosnov)]

7600 i 6500 sa edni ot naj-byrzite/naj-skypite routeri/switchowe na
Cisco w momenta.
Neshtoto koeto e mnogo wajno w sluchaq e che ne stawa duma za vanilla
linux kernel a za modifikaciq na kernela koqto poddyrja ASICite na
syotwetnata platforma + dopylnitelen software za routing daemoni i
system monitoring.

Razbira se edna from-the-ground-up specializirana operacionna sistema
bazinara na GPL kernel ima swoite preimushtestwa (opisani do golqma
stepen w whitepaper-a), no ima i nedostatyci.
Nedostatyci naprimer: Cisco nqma da te supportwat ako neshto ne ti
raboti, nezawisimo dali stawa duma za hardwareen ili softwareen problem,
towa syshto go narichat borba m/u vendorite na otdelnite chasti na edna
sistema. Lipsa na feature-i. Lipsa na specialisti koito da poznawat OSa.
Lipsa na firmi koito da go marketirat i prodawat. Lipsa na struktura ot
partnjori i predstawitelstwa na centralnie vendor.

Ne me razbirajte pogreshno. I na men mi se iska Cisco da ubiqt IOSa i da
naprawqt nov - baziran na Linux Kernel, no za syjalenie ne wijdam towa
da stane w blizkite 15-na godini. Inache ako si imah chastno 7600
routerche (za ~ $100k + cenata na portowete) bih si pusnal AYR Linux za
da widq za kakwo stawa duma.
