On the management station you can manually edit objects.C and the
appropriate *.W (Standard.W ?) file with any text editor. After that
issue the FW LOAD command with appropriate parameters (see docs). The
files are comparatively easy to read - at least for the standard stuff.
Worked for me when I had to access a distributed but broken Sun-based
FW-1 mesh of firewalls. 9600 baud for console access is not that much
fun, but it worked...
