Say it ain't so

Hi All,
        I've got a meeting with our Firewall Installers on the 29th. Got
pulled into as a result of 'centralizing' our computer/technology
staff and creation of a helpdesk. The upshot is this. We have been
apprised by one of the staff (Originally selected
installation/Firewall) and was told that every device behind the
firewall would have to 'be touched' for anything to work. It almost
sounds like a complete rework of the network setup/standard. We were
told that all IP addresses would have to be changed. Somehow I get
the impression that this is the installers idea, and I'm not quite
willing to by into it. I feel that it should be possible to 'plug-in'
any properly configured firewall (with the exception of the proxies)
and not have to reconfigure machines.
        Am I wrong?
