I just was curious weather they all keep pretty much the same type of interface / hardware configuration interfaces ,...etc. SO it won't take a whole new learning curve steep to find what you are looking for. there's cheat sheets for a lot of that, I've seen ios/junos stuff For example if you knew the fundamentals of everything you would still have to know how to physically do it on the new network hardware/software. And this is what I am curious if anybody has experience in the transition and how long it to them... interms of learning curve ,...etc
