We started working on this box back in late 2009 when Cisco were just
about ready to start shipping. Those days (even at the time of FCS), it
was 12.2EY. We always knew that we'd be rebooting the box every couple
of weeks-to-months for about 3x years, but we were fine with that
because Cisco were really the only vendor at the time that offered us a
solution to get MPLS all the way into the Access in a manner that made
sense (platform size, form factor, cost, feature set, e.t.c.).
