Does anyone have a list of bridges and a comparison of features? Ie packet rates, reliability, remote maintenance/debugging/Management, support of SNMP,CMOT etc. Also the same information for 10baseT concentrators. What we would like to find is some bridges and concentrators which support SNMP/MIB for network management.
