Are HP using Cisco IOS on HP switches

[christianmj]

Hi Guys

At my work we are getting Cisco switches replaced with new HP switches.

I think HP use Cisco IOS on there switches. Can any of you verify this?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

the OS of HP ProCurve switches have some similarities to Cisco IOS but many differences as well and I'd recommend some training and support for the replacement you're planning.

A lot of manufacturers uses the similar (not the same) CLI functionalities as Cisco.  Aside from HP, Juniper is one.
