Cons
"The CLI syntax for this solution is different from other switches such as Cisco and Juniper, and it takes us a long time to integrate a new device and get it working properly.""I think there is a need for more support of new generation technologies."

More Avaya Ethernet Switches [EOL] Cons →

"It would be ideal if they could do more configurations and offer more flexibility. Right now, it's not flexible at all.""The documentation should be improved from Cisco Linksys Ethernet Switches. Although it hints or refers to being able to do certain operations, they try to get you to load the software instead. They need to be more open with their documentation on using the web interface and give the client the option to use the software or not. This improvement is not on the switch itself, it is in the packaging.""On a scale of one to ten, with one being the worst and ten being the best, I rate the tool's scalability as seven since there are some limitations.""They need to develop better UI. Other products have a nice GUI.""I would like to see more manageability. That's primarily the reason why Linksys switches don't work in the enterprise space. They don't have the management and capabilities of other switches.""This product does not generate reports, so I would like to see something with better reporting.""The installation could be simplified.""Make them tougher and more ruggedized for warmer and Industrial types of environments, and HumiSeal the main boards and internal components."
