By arrangement

Remote systems administration

Monthly charge to retain documentation on your system

Calculated differently depending on complexity of network topology. but for say 1 cisco router connected to a checkpoint firewall on linux with no secure-remote users with 1 flat network behind the firewall.
It would be 14euro per month or 168euro per year,
so if you make 8 changes to your firewall in a year instead of costing 800euro or more based on the minimum 1 hour charge, It would cost 568euro at an estimated minimum of 30 minutes per rule change as these only take a mater of minutes if you have all the documentation to hand. {The uncontracted minimum time is because I have to, talk you through setting me up as a remote admin each time and getting all the relevant details for your network each time.}
