Back in the day we took it a a failure if a reboot happened. (I remember discussions about needing to reboot to keep counters from overflowing. I thought programming for counter wrap was a better idea.)
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.
