Description

Users take certain steps to distinguish between primary and secondary, like setting the primary login screen to green and secondary to red.
Once you are logged in though this can be forgotten and changes applied to secondary inadvertently.

If it's feasible with the current code, it would be nice to have pfSense check it's role if HA configured, and provide a dialog when making changes to secondary.

WARNING: you are making changes to a secondary HA node

There is already a feature request open for this: #10732

Also there is no definitive way to determine if a node is a secondary, see #13805 for that.
