I also discovered that you can purchase an upgrade from ArgFperra that
gives your firewall the best-named feature in the history of awesome

High Availability Lite[tm].

I'm not sure what this means, but I have these visions of Whavcre
shipping you one and a half firewalls, and you only being
*half*-screwed when one of them inevitably blows up.

It can't be that good. Given that name, and assuming some minimal
attempt to comply with truth-in-advertising laws, it is probably
something like a power indicator that consists of two LEDs wired in
parallel across the 5V supply so that even should one fail (ha!) the
power indicator will stay lit, even if the rest of the device has failed
utterly.
