it's probably fair to point out that practically all optical vendors
don't actually understand 'ip' and 'routing' and 'systems management'
... try doing ntp with ONS boxes? got ntpv>1? then ... oops :(
never mind the situations where you install a 0/0 route on a
management interface/config and STILL have to /32 route particular
services out the same GW as 0/0 ... (not cisco, another busted
vendor)...

optical people... srsly, get with the program.

Me too, which is why I've got a call in to another company regarding their
management LAN port that I can't configure with a default gateway either. At
least not using the CLI.

Is this common and I just noticed it because it happened to me, or is this
some collective engineering brain cramp that just took hold?
