Cisco vs Extreme Networks VLAN Setup

The document compares basic configuration commands for VLANs, ports, and other functions between Cisco and Extreme Networks switches. It provides the equivalent commands to create VLANs, configure port settings for various network scenarios, and view switch information between the two platforms. Examples are given for configuring two VLANs on each with IP addresses and enabling IP forwarding on Extreme, and creating two VLAN interfaces and configuring their IP addresses on Cisco. Corresponding show and configuration commands are also mapped between the switches.

compete very well with the likes of Cisco or HP. Feel free to check out their product line at
