The big thing is just time and resources. How many different
code/hardware/firmware permutations can you test? If they want to see
if the NPE-300 runs with every firmware on every build since it was
released with a full set of regression tests (IPv6, IPv4, BGP, IRB,
etc) the time to test becomes infinitely large. At some point the
vendor doesn't test and simply ends support. This doesn't mean it
won't work, it just means there are no guarantees.
