I sometimes wonder why Wellfleet nee Bay nee Nortel haven't already taken over most of Cisco's market share for this reason given their almost total embracement of SNMP for configuration and management.

Well, could it be because Cisco routers _work_? :-)

Nah, that's because Cisco sometimes listens. And, yes, lets the lowly users to talk to their actual engieers. Or at least used to. (Hint - try to find who wrote some particular piece of code in Nortel). --vadim
