True. You could also use snmp. You can also use a console port via serial, in fact you have to when you first set up a standard router. So you could have an ssh-able machine that allows only root to access a serial port, which is connected to the router console port.
I'm ready for my network+. I recently got an a+. Next I'm looking at either lpic or linux+. Not that I need the cert, but rather so I feel confident that my linux knowledge is adequately broad and deep. For instance I know a lot about freeswan/vpn and iptables firewalling, but have never setup nis, nfs, ldap and still have difficulty making a useable boot disk without a script, that actually has utilities on it rather than just "cat /boot/vmlinuz >/dev/fd0".
