mmm well, BGP security bugs in IOS are not that common. If you have a quite
secure setup around it and not use fancy setup, the uptime should stay pretty good
i reckon. Even if i agree that rebooting a BGP router is always a pain..
I dont specifically prefer IOS over linux, it really depends on what i wanna
do with the box.
Honestly, you dont want to see the IOS code, really: it is fat, huge (more than 700
Mo last time i looked) and is not all the time very nice to read.
For the ios interface, i reckon it does already exist. some guys at the Cisco
TAC in brussel are working on it.
