Agree. ISSU has never really worked, well enough or at all, since vendors started shipping it many years back. So we just don't even think about it when dealing with serious production networks. It's always more reliable to just take the box out of the path, upgrade it, and put it back in the path. Just the IOS XR boxes make this a not-so in-and-out type of process :-). > Well, "significantly" in this case is not the "order of > magnitude" improvement that I feel is needed to make > this good. Indeed. We'll know when the improvements drop. For now, can't expect things to be that much better until we actually see it. Mark.
