I'm about to install 2 NetBSD routers to peer on the LINX, and I'm hoping for the same uptimes for my NetBSD core routers: NetBSD defender.router.EASYNET.NET 1.2_BETA NetBSD 1.2_BETA (ROUTER) #2: Sat Jul 13 03:25:14 BST 1996 [email protected]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/ROUTER i386 6:55PM up 73 days, 6:17, 2 users, load averages: 0.06, 0.08, 0.08 GateD-defender.router.EASYNET.NET> show ip route 100 IP radix tree: 81032 nodes, 41812 routes This router handles our internal BGP4 to our 3 border routers, and carries a full routeing table, and will handle updates for the LINX.
