Based on the older architecture of XE — there was a direct correlation between XE and the IOSd blob that was running for most of the control-plane bits. Now that IOS-XE has moved towards “open” IOS-XE — with a drastic difference in architecture — 16.6+ is quite different “under the covers” than 3.x versions; not that you’ll see much over the top. Either way — the upgrade won’t be bigly different. q. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
