<br>
Establishing and maintaining credentials that control a POC is a some amount<br>
of amount of work. Login, 2nd factor authentication, etc. I see no reason<br>
to have to start again.<br>
<br>
In the situation where I transfer all my assets elsewhere, and then for<br>
whatever reason, do not acquire new things for 25 months (maybe a non-compete<br>
agreement. Maybe a vacation. Maybe just not in the ISP business for awhile),<br>
I might want to just be able to ping my POC to keep it alive.<br>
