As a network administrator who configures routers, switches, and firewalls on a regular basis, I don't give a flying flip about what's commonly thought of as "good UX design" on IT appliances. The best UX for me is the one that's the fastest. Which means SSH, CLI, and text editors over anything graphical. As examples:
A router's web interface requires clicking through multiple pages to find the right box to check or fill in to add a new subnet to a BGP session (if it's even possible at all). Via CLI, I can do this with one config stanza.
I'd rather edit a config file (preferably one that's well-commented) in a text editor than wade through the web interface on any appliance.
I'll ALWAYS open up PuTTY instead of ASDM when I need to modify a firewall rule on a Cisco ASA.
