Indeed; if your firewall rulesets change so often that you find it
onerous to walk down the hall to the console, then your firewall
ruleset is changing too often, which probably means you are
already in a state of screwed.

Or "down the hall" involves a 13 hour flight to Tokyo...if you're lucky. If not, you might have to transfer to go to a branch office.

And no, I'm not exaggerating. Of course, more folks work for slightly smaller companies... ;-)
