[j-nsp] MX480 JunOS version.

[Paul Stewart]

We're still running 10.0R3.10 on MX platform (MX480) and with an uptime of
about 261 days and "no obvious issues" (notice I choose my words carefully
there) is there a reason to upgrade or just sit back at this point?  I
realize this is a bit of a loaded question but today we have no issues that
we're aware of.

The only minor issue we found (and couldn't replicate reliably) was a
phantom BGP bug - remove a session and it still showed up in an active
state.  Clear the session and it would then disappear...

Juniper just put out a tech bulletin this morning admitting the obvious, 
that 10.2R1/R2/R3 and 10.3R1 for Trio (MPC) cards are massively broken 
and shouldn't be used. Try 10.3R2, it's been mostly ok for us (not 
counting the bug we hit the other day where all the MPCs crashed in an 
endless loop after updating a prefix-list referenced in a firewall 
filter on them, but at least so far this seems rare :P). Alas 10.3R3 
seems to be delayed, but you'll be far better off with 10.3R2 than you 
will with 10.2R1 in the config above.
