Talk:Industrial Ethernet

message: The December 14 edit replaced two external links to Westermo competitors with links to Westermo main page.
(Westermo is a manufacturer of industrial Ethernet switches)
After the edit, three out of the six external links pointed to Westermo. There are also some Westermo links in the article itself.
Looks to me like Westermo is trying to use Wikipedia as a free advertising service.
I have tried to clean up most of the advertising.
----
I just undid yet another Westermo advertising attempt.
If there is any valid reason why Westermo should have multiple external links, and garretcom/gcna none, please let me know. Otherwise I will continue to treat the Westermo link edits as vandalism.

replies: text: I agree... this 'event' probably ghas more to do with crappy design than inherent Ethernet issues.  It seems to me that Industrial Ethernet is just another option with different complexity, compromises and cost. Alisterb (talk) 00:43, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

message: Can anyone explain to me what the formatting of the "Main Protocols" table is supposed to be?  Looks random to me. This should be rewritten as text. --Wtshymanski (talk) 14:53, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Here's my guess at what the table is trying to say: The protocols listed in rows formerly operated on their purpose-built physical layer. I believe the first column is the original protocol name in that environment. The second column is the new name new carried over Ethernet instead of the purpose-built physical layer. Third column indicates the link, network and transport layer used on Ethernet. --Kvng (talk) 16:52, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: If we're guessing ( and we're editors) and not coming up with a good understanding of the table, the table is rubbish. --Wtshymanski (talk) 19:21, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

message: What's with the caps, Industrial Ethernet? Based on the lead description it doesn't sound like the subject is a proper noun so should be, industrial Ethernet, unless at the beginning of a sentence? Anyone disagree? ~Kvng (talk) 15:05, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
