I believe the Foundry ServerIron only does 100bT ethernet, and is a
dedicated box to only doing load balancing. The Alteon ACESwitch
180/180+ is a general purpose fastether (gigether on the 180+) switch
with layer2, layer3 and layer4 functionality. I've just got a
ACESwitch 180+ and although I haven't gone live with it yet, initially
it seems to be relatively easy to manage and flexible.
