[nsp] bgp vulnerability

[Kinczli Zoltán]

Hi,

  Yes, i do see your point. There are, however, some release parity infos -- as the 12.2S is
based on Major release, 12.2 and 'critical' hw and feature support is synchnronised
with 12.1E and 12.0S -- for instance:

12.2(14)S with 12.1(13)E
12.2(18)S with 12.1(14)E and select features from 12.0(22)S

rgds,
 -z.

See what I mean?

GSR is only supported in 12.0S

7600 is only supported in 12.1E and 12.2SY (or something like that)

7200+NPE-G1 has - until recently - only been supported in 12.1E and 12.2S

7300 is also only supported in 12.2S, but not the same releases that
     support 7200/7500 (12.2(18)S vs. 12.2(20)S) -> different features
     and bugs

IPv6 for 7200/7500 is only supported in 12.2S (or 12.2T/12.3/12.3T)

- so how is a service provider supposed to get a fairly consistent IOS
rolled out on his backbone?

This *sucks*.
