The S series runs the same FTOS as the C and E series, as of a number of months ago. The only exception is the 2410, ie all 10G ports L2 only. -jim On Mon, Sep 1, 2008 at 3:19 AM, Greg VILLAIN <nanog@grrrrreg.net> wrote:

Another thing to note (as near as I can tell, this applies to all vendors). All line cards will function only at the lowest common denominator line card CAM level.
IOW, if you have single, dual, and quad-cam cards in your F10 chassis, they'll all act like single-CAM cards.

I'd have to second that. This is a very annoying fact, that you will find mentioned nowhere. What I also used to dislike is the lack of verbosity of 'show features' - but that was back a year ago. Btw, you absolutely want to avoid the S series, the CLI is a pain, and is not the same as the E or C series, and lacks many features. Price/10G port is interesting though, but not as much as with Arastra, if that's switching you're into. (never tested any such kits though...) My own 2 cents.
