This is to keep you from making a mistake and not being able
to get back
into your server. One reboot, and everything is back to the
way it was
before the change. Of course, you can take other measures to
regain access
without having to take your server down, but this is a
last-ditch method in
case you didn't take any other precautions.
Once you have a rule set that you are confident with, you
have to make it a
part of your server's startup sequence, much like a personal
firewall
automatically makes itself a part of your Windows startup.
