That brings up an interesting question, to which I don't know the
answer. Is this mainline 12.1, or does it include some of the more
specialized service provider releases? Some things such as new BGP
are likely to show up there first.
Another thing to consider is the published equipment list. Recently,
I was digging into some variants of policy routing, and found they
ran only on the 12000, 7500, and sometimes 7200. That probably means
they will NOT be on the lab, although I suppose they are fair game
for the written.
