I take it then, everything I defined previously in terms of tcclasses, tcrules, tcfilters and the like will be fully operational, provided that device stayed in UP state and was open all along?
The alternative, as you suggested, is to use shorewall-init, but I haven't looked at it yet and I am not sure whether it is clever enough to reload the firewall and introduce only the policy(ies) for that particular device (rules entries, tcclasses, tcfilters, tcrules etc) and not reload the whole lot, which would be a bit of a waste really. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
