  • In January 2003, Cisco Systems filed a lawsuit against Huawei Technologies alleging unlawful copying of Cisco's intellectual property. In particular, the suit alleges that Huawei unlawfully copied and misappropriated Cisco's IOS software, including source code, copied Cisco documentation and other copyrighted materials, and infringed numerous Cisco patents.


  • Earlier this week, Avici announced a new series of “Any Service Any Port�? multi-service line cards for its routing platforms. The software configurable cards are based on an Intel network processor and support ATM, Frame Relay, POS/PPP and MPLS interfaces on the same card.
