Which is how I have it.  I am now thinking about the impact on my
rulebase and perhaps spoofing if I change it on the fly during production
hours.  Thoughts?  At first thought, I think it wouldn't matter,
but would have to think about it for awhile to be comfortable.
Would you think a complete rebuild is necessary as Ken suggests,
or may this be as simple as renumbering the gateway and pushing
out they new policy?

Thanks very much for the help

Hal
