Title: OPNsense 26.1_4-amd64 unable to view automatic generated rules in new firewall rules
Post by: hharry on February 04, 2026, 03:14:53 AM
LAB sand box test environment upgraded from 25.7.11 to 26.1_4-amd64, and now unable to view automatic rules in new firewall.

Under the old firewalls rules, can see all the automatic rules applied, i used the rules migration feature, and cannot view any of the automatic generated rules in the new firewall rules...

Howto view automatic generated rules in new firewall rules ?

Hi hharry

The new GUI for the firewall rules is unfortunately a bit confusing and will certainly need some further optimization. To see the automatic rules, simply click the 'Inspect' button.

How about "documented confusing"?

https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/firewall.html#inspect-button

It's new, it will mature or grow on you. In this case perhaps the latter. You mostly do not need the automatic rules for inspection when you open the page do do something.
