Avaya WLAN 8100 Series
Legacy Nortel had a few hiccups (to say the least) with the release of a few WLAN products in the past. And with the buyout of Nortel by Avaya, development on their new WLAN infrastructure was long awaited.
Avaya recently announced their new 2300 and 8100 series WLAN 802.11 solutions: here is some info and a video from Interop a few weeks ago.
