No, but it's clear that there are many designers out there who feel this is the way to go. That's why it's a good idea to cover the ground anyways.
but it's generally a good idea whenever possible, and as restrictive a com= munications policy as is possible is definitely called for, amongst all the= other things one ought to be doing.
I think the part people forget about is that last part, "amongst all the other things one ought to be doing."
It's also important to note that it's often impossible to *completely* airg= ap things, these days, due to various interdependencies, admin requirements= (mentioned before), and so forth; perhaps bastioning is a more apt term.
If it didn't turn into a situation where everyone's bastardizing^Wbastioning your network in insecure ways. ...
