Talk:FORE Systems

Some issues with this article

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

1. In the first paragraph of History, it makes a puzzling distinction between "network interface cards" for SBus and TurboChannel computers and "adapters" for Silicon Graphics computers. An ATM adapter is the same thing as an ATM network interface card, so why is this distinction made?

2. It was my understanding that the primary first product of FORE was the ASX-100 ATM switch, not the adapters. Is there a source for what grant was used to start FORE Systems?

3. I believe the first ASX-100 switches used TAXI rates at 100 Mbps, not the SONET rates of 155.52 Mbps.

4. In the second paragraph under History, it mentions "Firewall switching". What is Firewall switching?

5. In the same paragraph, "switching" at the Internet Protocol level is called "routing". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.145.84.194 (talk) 14:55, 5 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
