Nutanix with any Extreme Network Switch

Hi everyone, I was looking at the documentation and the switches recommended by Nutanix itself:https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/solutions/details?targetId=BP-2050-Physical-Networking.html Is there any reason why no Extreme Networks switch is on the list? Some clients have requested that the provided equipment be on this list, but there are some very similar (if not fully compatible) models with several Extreme Networks devices, like the Extreme Networks 7520-48Y or Extreme Networks 8520-48Y.Is there any reason for this? Or is it simply because someone needs to approve it from either side?

Problem with kernel 6.1.0-25-amd64 with Nutanix

Hello.I detected a problem using the latest kernel 6.1.0.-25-amd64 with all my VMs under Nutanix. I recently upgraded all my Debian servers from version 12.6 to 12.7: in version 12.6 the linux kernel in use was 6.1.0-23-amd64 and in version 12.7 is 6.1.0-25-amd64. The issue is related with the download speed using this kernel in all my upgraded VM’s. It’s extremely slow. So after 2 days trying to figure out what was happening (installing debian 12.7 in a new VM same problem....installing in VirtualBox no problem at all), so I decided to rollback to the old kernel, maintaining the Debian version 12.7 (with kernel 6.1.0-23-amd64) and the problem stopped. I’m using the following system, see picture: Here are some speed tests: Debian version 12.6:wget https://proof.ovh.net/files/100Mb.dat--2024-09-05 01:26:12-- https://proof.ovh.net/files/100Mb.datResolviendo proof.ovh.net (proof.ovh.net)... 141.95.207.211, 2001:41d0:242:d300::Conectando con proof.ovh.net (proof.ovh.net)[141.95.207.211]:4
