Ok, can the settings not be stored somehow in a profile? Assuming that it
was
a simple ICMP flood filter, and the user has a cisco 1004 2BRI to feed his
small
business LAN that he had dynamic IP allocation due to the fact that the
router was
set to dial on demand. At that point would it be possible to load a profile
when the
user dials up that has a stored filter list? I would assume that this is a
plausible
situation and would really appreciate any other imput.

I'm sorry but I can think of more ways why it would be useful vice the
annoyance of
having to implement it...
Thank you very much for the reply Stephen,
