Or you may be thinking of the mergers, etc...,  with Cabletron,
Riverstone, and Yago and then all that into Lucent.

Cabletron != baynetworks, that was Wellfleet and Synoptics that merged
to become Bay, that became Nortel.....
I've been around too long.

I got to go to one Interop; way back in Atlanta when Cabletron and
whomever else turned into Bay Networks were still separate companies.
