You can't be doing this sober

Well, I was upgrading the LNSs and switching everyone over and then doing the core BGP routers which is a tad more seamless...

All went very very well indeed. Just as planned. All the tweaks and work arounds for yet another round of screwed up L2TP and RADIUS attributes from a carrier (not BT this time) all in place having spent most of the day (very sober) on them...

Then someone on irc says "you can't be doing this sober".

Well, this is the thing. Obviously a core network upgrade needs careful planning and deployed by competent (sober) staff...

And yes, there are indeed sober and competent staff on hand should anything go wrong :-)

That is all I will say on the matter... (xkcd can say far more)
