IronPowered Technology Alliance Program
Foundry Networks IronPowered Technology Alliance Program is designed to provide our customers with the reassurance that our joint solutions have been tested and certified. The goal of our program is to build long-term partnerships with satisfied customers.
Our IronPowered Technology Program gives partners multiple advantages:
- Offer customers a comprehensive, integrated, and simplified solution
- Co-Market solutions through branding, awareness, and lead generation programs
- Create incremental opportunities by facilitating strategic sales engagements
- Deliver complementary solutions that are validated through interoperability testing
IronPowered Program Levels
- Within this program structure there are three achievement levels depending on the partner category—Premier, Associate, and Registered. Partner benefits and requirements are a function of partnership level and achievement of business objectives.



- Global Alliance: The relationship between Foundry Networks and a partner is global in nature and covers multiple functional groups or organizations between the two companies. This highest partnership level is by invitation only.
- Strategic Alliance: Companies at this level have significant market presence and a track record of success with Foundry Networks.
- Premier Alliance: Companies at this level are newly partnered with Foundry or have a deliberate reason for working with us. These partnerships must fill a technology gap or bring value to Foundry services or solutions.
- Interoperable Solutions: Solutions that have completed interoperability testing. Companies at this level have a product that fills a technology gap, but do not meet the Premier Partner program requirements. Interoperable solutions will have the opportunity to become Foundry Partners if they meet partnership requirements.
