Just curious what testing protocol people use with router code (IOS or
JunOS for example) when considering deployment of a new version. Obviously
the deployment would be made incrementally, but I wonder if you do anything
more than running it in a lab router for a couple of weeks before the
initial deployment.
Thanks
