remember disposition:
small net(s) connected via low band (less then 10M)
link to one upstream.

_If_ such a router configured correctly
(no services, static only routes, closed enough
efficiency optimized ipfw)
then it is brobably unkillable, if source
of attack in not directly connected.

Unfortunately I know method to disable
some directly connected ethernet ports
on FreeBSD based router.

Thank you for the link, it brings up some
interesting idea for my student's work.
