Just like a fresh install of windows 95 is better than upgrading from 3.11 It feels cleaner :)

Well, I could see the fear that "not everything is really on the same level" (like, some features are missing bugfixes, etc.) and much later, you run into weird "it works on this device, but fails on that one, and both claim to run the same level of IOS XR" issues. It's an expression of distrust to the software upgrade process... I do not have a personal opinion on "upgrade from 4.3.4 to 5.x" vs. "clear the box and turbo-boot" - upgrading sounds like the path that will impact service less long (though not necessarily taking less time overall), and I certainly do hope that a full upgrade will totally remove all traces from prior OS versions and SMUs - but am totally lacking arguments and experience either way. gert -- USENET is *not* the non-clickable part of WWW! //www.muc.de/~gert/ Gert Doering - Munich, Germany [email protected] fax: +49-89-35655025 [email protected] _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
