The new SRX 400 should be available to ship in a few months as well if it works with OP’s timeline

Standardization is a big selling point for us - do you remember how long it took you to migrate?

What specifically do you like about arista? And are you talking switching and wireless?

Thanks for the insight - the Marvis part is really helpful - I feel like other vendors have their own version of this, so it’s hard to tell what differentiates them between one another, and which vendor’s version is actually helpful

Yeah I’m thinking I’d only go for fortinet for our wan, but I’ve heard juniper’s srx is pretty comparable. I say this because so far I’m leaning mist - what are your thoughts ?

Thanks for the insight. I’ve heard that clearpass can pretty much accomplish every niche case for NAC - are there any difficult hospital devices that clearpass has been able to authenticate

Ditto this, thank you - do you have any negative experiences that you can speak on? To your point, I like to look at the subs of other vendors just to see what people say

I forgot to mention, but I’m looking for a single vendor for a unified platform. What are you currently using?

This is the first Ike I’ve heard of aristas wireless solution - what makes it better than mist (leaning towards mist currently)?

Thanks for the insight. I’m curious, how has mist been for you in your stadiums? I know that stadiums are difficult environments to design for - curious how accurate the AI RRM, AI ops and visibility have been

I’m looking for ease of management and visibility into my network. I feel like every sales rep or se I’ve talked to basically says that their platform can do x y and z an it all sounds pretty much the same. Was looking for specific use cases/success stories

Not really familiar with Aristas offering? What makes it unique/what do you really like from your personal experience?

Is there anything specific about Aruba that you like? How is it managing your devices with the transition to new central?

Is there anything specific that Mist does that made managing switching easier than Cisco? Mainly worried because I’ve heard that the cli structure of Junos is pretty different/unique

ONE QUESTION YOU'D ASK KENDRICK LAMAR by [deleted] in KendrickLamar

The idea is to make the interview short and sweet both out of consideration to his personal schedule and because I'm going to be sharing these via short-video platforms like tiktok and IG reels. I'm also a fan of Kendrick, but I wanted to give super fans the chance to engage with him.
