working today

Ah, the joys of upgrading microcode on 6500 series Cisco routers with Sup-720 modules. It's really not all that bad and in theory this work *COULD* be conducted from afar but when dealing with the big boys it's a good idea to be at the router in case of a meltdown. The upgrades today are rolling along and I've got a couple more hours to work in my change window plus I get to visit some buildings I've not stepped foot in for quite a while, over two years in some cases.

It's all good. As long as there is a paycheck attached to my work at the end of the week, so to speak, I'm ok with everything.

Onward! To downdown Durham! There are many routers left to upgrade.
