Long time ago I spent some time typing out our entire config, since then all
I need to do to configure a new box is:
- set dip switches, connect ethernet, plug in terminal
- power on the box, log in, set ether0 address and netmask
- telnet to the box and do a couple of copy&paste's
This whole procedure takes less than 5 minutes.
