51 days is pretty low up-time for networking equipment. They must really be paranoid.

“51 days is pretty low up-time for networking equipment. They must really be paranoid.”

from reading the article, it’s no paranoia but a known problem, in other words, REALLY REALLY REALLY bad programming ....

Yeah but this is ‘on aircraft’ network equipment. 51 days is a long time to keep an aircraft powered on. What this is saying is they can’t leave the same plane powered for more than 51 days at a stretch.

No kidding. I have datacenter network gear that stays up without a reboot for years. The only time it gets restarted is after applying a required security patch.
