Back over here in router-land when the cat65k vss pair went down it's at
least 20 minutes before it's back. If you enjoy what may be the longest
minutes of your life try tripping over a bug that takes out two pairs
and a whole pop. Having something come back quickly is part of having
flexibility since things do go pear-shaped, and responding to outages
rather than not having them is not tick box we get to decline.
Today my Arista reloada in about 220 seconds which is tolerable but if
it were half that I'd be even happier.
