Title: Support for lots of firewalls
Post by: GaardenZwerch on February 08, 2018, 11:07:22 am
Hi OPN community,

I am currently looking for a replacement for my firewall distribution, and I have some specific needs, mainly because I have A LOT (<70) firewalls to manage from a central location.

My firewalls share a lot of common objects, and I absolutely need a way to avoid redefining the same hosts, nets, ports and even rules over and over. Is there any kind of support for this in OPNsense?

I could probably get by if there were either an #include mechanism in config.xml, or if I could place some (pairs of) markers in there and replace what's between them.

Is there any kind of support for this? Is anyone here managing a large number of firewalls? How do you do it?


Thanks a lot,

Frank
