Roving reporter Chad Schonewill submitted the following from his visit to the Broomfield, CO, Brocade Office on January 23:
Vish, David Z., Andrew, and Chad took a day trip to the Brocade Office in Broomfield and toured the offices there, focusing on viewing the lab setups that CC can utilize for testing Brocade equipment. Vish asked the Brocade folks if some Aruba gear could be added to their lab and they agreed to get that set up for us. Soon, we’ll be able to test both the Brocade and Aruba gear in a nearby location…very exciting!
Brocade also showed the group a “mobile lab” setup in a small cart which was very interesting. The whole group also discussed CC’s network design and made a few live tweaks to it, as well as did some hands-on work with the test equipment in the same hardware line that the college is purchasing. All-in-all, it was a productive visit.
Thank you, Chad, for your report and pictures; thank you, David Z., for the added commentary!
ITS:Always fun, never boring
