Description

Currently hovering over the action icon on a firewall log entry shows a small tooltip with the action text and the rule tracker ID but it isn't clearly presented.

We should turn this into a nicely formatted box that appears when hovering, similar to the one used in other places for aliases, gateway groups, etc.

It should include at least the following:

  • Action: <action text> ($filterent['act'])
  • Reason: <reason text> ($filterent['reason'])
  • Tracker ID: <id> ($filterent['tracker'])

If it's viable, it might be good to show the actual rule there as well so users don't have to click to see it, but that may be slow/inefficient. If the rule can't be added, then the hover text should include a note saying "Click to show matching rule" or similar.
