Hi Fabien,

I strongly have to disagree with you. We run a full bgp implementation on 
Extreme in our network and are very pleased with it and the support that we get 
from Extreme. One of our x480's we run has about 1.4 milj learned routes and 
another has around 200 bgp peers on the AMS-iX... So what is your point ?

As an ex-Extreme employee making such strong statements, while you don't know 
the current status at customers, it may be best to ask who is using it and how, 
instead of acting like a grumpy ex-employee. 

Feel free to ask about our setup.

Regards,
Erik Bais
