Hi,
I'm planning to migrate from pfsense to OPNsense.
I know this is an old topic, and I don't want to upset anyone, but I do have a question regarding this topic.
Me too, I would love to see some kind of separation, segregation between blocks of rules within an interface or group. Besides using that a lot in my pfsense, also in my professional life, all firewalls I worked with (Fortinet, Checkpoint, Fortinet, Juniper, ...) have one way or another to separate or group blocks of rules.
I already read that the OPNsense developers are unlikely to implement rule separation headers like in pfsense. I can understand most of the points they raised about this, but....
It seems to me, it is already possible (in a way)? Because I see exactly that, when looking at the line "Automatically generated rules"... it has all I would like:
- a set of rules grouped together
- can be collapsed/expanded

Is it not possible to open up that feature for when we add rules ourselves?

I tried that, but it is different ... how do I explain .... categories do not enforce or are not "inline" with the order of the rules. If you know what I mean?

I know what you mean. I for myself accepted, whether in closed or open source, you dont get every wish/feature implemented

Just wanted to say, that I'm about to embark on 170+ OPNsense installs each with lots of rules and this feature is sorely missing.
