Tellabs released a “ServiceAssured” upgrade for its IP/MPLS-based Tellabs 8800 multi-service router (MSR). A key enhancement is the ability to maintain all control and data path connectivity during system maintenance and software upgrades. For example, end-user Virtual Private Networks connections, as well as routing protocols, will operate normally during a system software upgrade with the Tellabs 8800 MSR. This ensures that software-related maintenance upgrades will cause no disruption to service provider networks.

You just read about Tellabs. One of the companies whose work it now carries:
Advanced Fibre Communications built Digital loop carrier and fiber access systems. What became of it?
Advanced Fibre Communications brought Digital loop carrier and fiber access systems to Telecom. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its acquisition by Tellabs for US$1.9B. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside Tellabs today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
