InterOp: Audience Members Assail Vendors on Bogus Claims

Sean Michael Kerner writes on internetnews.com:

In a keynote address that I personally found to be remarkably honest and forthright, Juniper CEO Scott Kriens took direct aim at bogus vendors' claims that they ultimately only serve to muddle user expectations.

There was no shortage of bogus claims being made on the show floor and in various sessions. Though Kriens himself didn't go booth to booth or session to session to out the bogusness, others took up the challenge.

In a session about MPLS, panel moderator Johna Till Johnson, president of Nemertes Research, responded to a bogus comment made by a panelist asking him to instead provide a real answer.
