I put entries in my /etc/hosts file for network devices that I need to manage,
then either create Firefox bookmarks (I have a sub-section of my bookmarks file
called "hardware") or make little bash scripts in my ~/bin directory to ssh or
telnet me where I want to go.  They are all named "channeltowhatever", so if I
want to go to outsiderouter I type "channeltooutsiderouter".  If I forget the
name of a device I can do "ls ~/bin/channel*" or look at my bookmarks.  I try
to use device names that mean something, of course.
