I was trying not to make any assumptions about the user's level of knowledge. I was looking to help people who are coming to the system from another OS such as Solaris and who might not be familiar with the Ubuntu Server way of doing things. For example in Solaris there is no ifup or ifdown, you use ifconfig commands. If you think the line "Keep in mind if you are connected via ssh and you bring down the interface you are using you will be disconnected."
