<ul></ul><p>The mass disable/enable/copy function is good, but the second bit you describe is essentially already there with Interface Groups.</p>

<ul></ul><p>Thank you, Jim: how could I have overlooked that?(?) Even more: as I have used them in the past(!) (But there was something with it, I don't recall anymore). This happens, obviously, when your brain is a little bit damaged (as mine is).</p> pfSense - Feature #4194: Mass maintenance tools :-)https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4194?journal_id=165592015-01-09T09:51:15ZHollander Hollander
<ul></ul><p>In the thread you referred to, Jim, Volker made another good mass maintenance suggestion:</p>
<p>[quote]<br />The other really useful feature would be to be able to disable entries in the alias list without having to remove them, like it is possible with rules.[/quote]</p> pfSense - Feature #4194: Mass maintenance tools :-)https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4194?journal_id=165952015-01-11T11:48:43ZHollander Hollander
<ul></ul><p>Give my damaged brain some time, and it comes back to me (in the shower, this morning :D).</p>

<p>Anyway, the problem I found to bite me with interface groups is: you want to set certain rules on the interface address. But when setting up the rule in the tab for the interface group (for example the VLAN group, containing 40 VLAN's), you can not do anything useful in Destination - Type field; there's 40 individual VLAN addresses there, but no setting 'individual VLAN address for the respective VLAN' (I hope you understand me :-)).</p>
<p>So perhaps you could trick around by creating an alias, but that will very quickly become messy (VLAN10 can go to VLAN 20 but nog to 30, 40 can go to etc etc etc): that's a lot of aliases.</p>
<p>Hence my original proposal, it would solve this all elegantly :-)</p>

<ul></ul><p>On 2.2 there is a macro in the drop-down list for destination that is "This Firewall" which covers all IP addresses on the firewall itself.</p> pfSense - Feature #4194: Mass maintenance tools :-)https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4194?journal_id=247072016-02-01T23:29:25ZJim Thompsonjim@netgate.com
