Title: API for Firewal rule?
Post by: swingline on October 28, 2018, 09:23:14 am

Just wondering if this could be done with API enable/Disable firewall rule.

For exsample:

I have a rule that blocks all traffic for my kids devices when they are acting up. Just wondering If I could use the API to make a two button android app for my wife to enable/disable the rule when I'm not around?

Firewall alias API support was added in 18.7.6. Full firewall rule API support is pending.


Cheers,
Franco

Just found Home Pursuits (https://homepursuits.co/) and wondering if this could be done with API enable/Disable firewall rule.

Any ETA on the full firewall rule API at this point, Franco? I'm just curious.

It's lacking funding to give any reliable deadline. Only thing that is for sure is not in 2018, easily 2020 if this trend continues.
