From what you've described, I don't think it'll be relevant. You should be able to safely ignore that. I'm running with 3 Red IP Addresses. I'm just aliasing them, and I THINK that's all you're after too. Chances are the docs are just old. Nobody likes doing doc work... :)
You could set it up and try a scheduled test of it though, to be sure.
If you do end up needing to do manual edits, PERSONALLY, I usually add them to /etc/rc.d/rc.local, and I know that's the recommended way (It's copied during backups, and upgrades). And for routing, it shouldn't really matter when they are added. If you need to edit the firewall scripts themselves, they should be in rc.d also (as I remember), and with them, ordering WILL matter.

Thanks Kev :
A test is scheduled tomorrow. On the topic of backups, ever tried the backup to floppy via the interface. It says it needs a formatted floppy. I tried with a floppy on which I did a fdformat /dev/fd0 before but the floppy remains empty although the floppy drive led is on for +/- 45 sec. I have tried also after I put on a file system (ext3) but no luck...
Do I need a filesys on the floppy, or is that put on during backup?
Thanks
Pete
