Agree with Rx-S<latest> and with reasonably conservative approach, <latest> should be >= 3. In S1, S2 you will probably get PR fixes affecting multiple previous releases but for a new R-specific PRs it takes time to be discovered and fixes implemented, which usually takes not less than 6 months. Also you may take into consideration that last releases in a train usually have longer support period.

Kind regards,
Andrey

I'm not sure how long Arista can keep the single binary approach as they
expand their portfolio
and feature set. For example it makes very little sense to have full BNG
code on EX access switches, imge would be huge.

As for JTAC recommended release, it's a very generic recommendation not
taking specific use cases into consideration (Except for EVPN-VXLAN CRB/ERB) Typically Juniper considers R3 releases to be mainstream adoptable (reality
is more like R3-S<latest>) but you will sleep better if you do proper
testing and to avoid regression bugs etc.

You can always ask your friendly SE for some guidance.

How do you plan which JUNOS version to deploy on your network? Do you stick to the KB21476 - JTAC Recommended Junos Software Versions or go a different route? Some of the JTAC recommended code seems to be very dated, but that
is probably by design for stability.

Just wondering if JUNOS will ever go to a unified code model like Arista does? The amount of PR's and bug issues in JUNOS seems overwhelming. Is this standard across vendors? I am impressed that Juniper takes the times to keep track of all these issues, but I am unimpressed that there are this
many bugs.
