FYI, in 6.39 they reverted to the pre-6.38 behavior. Apparently, 6.40 will have options for how BPDUs are handled, but that doesn’t appear to be implemented in the RC version yet.

Because of this, we're still running 6.37.5, but we're planning to upgrade once 6.39.x looks stable enough.

Very stable for us. Whatever you do, try to make all routers talking with each other via ospf, run the same version. Mismatched versions can cause you issues.

Prior I was running 6.34.something and everything was working, so didn't want to break what wasn't broken, but 6.37 had some fixes for VPLS out of order packets and I wanted to see if it made a difference in our use case. It didn't break anything at least.

We are pretty much running all 1036’s and a 1072 right now. Thanks, Christian Palecek Chief Operations Officer Cybernet1 Inc. Hamilton, MT
