Description

pfSense 2.1.x had an automatic captive portal pass rule to allow users to reach the portal daemon, this automatic rule is gone from 2.2 so users with strict rulesets have to manually guess/locate the CP daemon port for their zone and add a manual rule.

It's a support headache as well as a POLA violation, so we should probably bring that rule back. If it needs to be optional, there could be a checkbox on the portal config for it.
