Best protocol/topology, ever! My only complaint is on slide 25 where Peter indicates 20 deployments to date. In fact, counting the other vendor deployments in addition to Peter's company (those from former Avaya, now Extreme Networks), there are well over 1000 separate customer deployments. In addition, at the 2013 and 2014 Las Vegas Interop shows, I personally was involved in multi-vendor deployments for the InterOp network backbone. Both years went virtually flawlessly!
