Oof I did a firmware upgrade on my main external firewall.
The upgrade went fine but when we added an ISP a month or so prior, I forgot to redistribute the ISPs routes. While all my ISPs were technically working, and the firewall came back up, nothing below it could get to the internet, so it was good as down.
Cue the 1.5 hour drive into the office…
Had that drive to think about what went wrong. Got into the main lobby, sat down, joined the wifi, and fixed it in 3 minutes.

Didn’t even get to my desk or the datacenter.
