Perspective. In addition to 'real' work, I run a firewall for a
University ... an old class B allocation, approaching 8000 hosts, more
than 100 subnets, 5 'security domains', 1 Gbit link. Even that isn't
especially complex, so a home network looks fairly simple to me.

That's what I'll be running once I get my network re-organised into a
shape that would case anyone with any sense to fall about laughing.
