Proposed Items:
* Huawei to potentially join the SAI effort (new ASIC vendor)
* Serial Concentrator
** Motivation: Current low end Cyclades and others is ~$3000 per 48 port unit
** Example BOM: ARM SOC + 48 Prolific or FTDI chipsets + PSUs is way less than $1000
** ONIE based
** 48 port RJ45 Cisco pin outs
** Target MSRP ~$500
* Add IPMI / iLOM to Mgmt port on Switches
** Motivation:
*** Reduces need for Serial Concentrator for new gear (Serial over LAN)
*** Reduces need for Smart PDUs to power cycle network devices
* Increase BW between Control Plane and Data Plane
** Support Firewall / Load Balancer functionality natively
