Description

I'd like to be able to disable and enable multiple firewall rules at once. It would make it easier for troubleshooting purposes.

You read my mind.

This Feature would be much appreciated!
Not only for debugging but also for emergency situations,
i.e. if you want to shutdown several services at once to
respond to an attack or abuse.
Interface shutdown is no alternative if the network is
maintained from remote.

I support the idea! Why has no one reacted for so many years?

This would be excellent!

I guess when it needs to be done, people just resign themselves to "I'll just do them all manually right now, like I always have".

It's very inconvenient and time-consuming to:
  1. click to edit a rule/nat
  2. wait for page refresh
  3. checkmark "disable"
  4. scroll down
  5. save
  6. wait for page refresh
  7. repeat steps 1-6, 24 times
  8. repeat steps 1-6, 24 times, to uncheck "disable"
