Dear all,
You can find HUWEI-CISCO test and configs at
http://195.7.8.220/~vlad/ar_series.pdf

I've made this test last year in september to an operator in Europe .You
can find there mpls related test.

This test is only for mid and low-end routers. For backbone/core routers
i will post it later. I hope i can put some configs also for
Huawei-Juniper interoperability

Any suggetions or question plese let me know

>Actually am in the same boat. I will commence interoperability testing with cisco next month. Am currently re-writing my tests and building test-beds. I would appreciate taking a look at what you have done, if you can share.
