Avaya has been acquired by Extreme and I'm guessing that they will replace the current software with ExtremeXOS. I don't know what new features they are implementing or what modification they are going to make. In terms of recommendations, Cisco is not my favorite vendor.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
