Mellanox and bad CLI choices

Greg Ferro of EtherealMind comments:

I’ve been working on Mellanox S-Series switches lately in a largish network with several hundred 10GbE server ports. On the whole, the product has performed beyond my cynically low expectations and the product has good capabilities overall but the command line interface (CLI) is a really poor user experience.

A great product can be ruined by an arcane, unintelligible interface. Read of for Greg’s assessment of Mellanox and their CLI.
