You need *Java* to manage a switch?!  Excuse me while I puke.
Note to self: never buy a Nortel switch or recommend one at work.
Sheesh.  I thought it was bad enough that some products have a web
interface only, no telnet, and others can be managed by telnet but
you can't turn off the built in web server, but things have sunk to a
new low with the news that there's a switch out there that requires
Java to manage it.

What next?  Switches that will only talk to Internet Exploder? :-p
