Description

Hello,

I just wanted to request a feature that i think is very helpful and almost necessary to have. I recently added a WAN2 to my existing network, so I can have Load Balancing and Fail Over. But when WAN1 goes down and it switches to WAN2, there are no rules set in WAN2. The only way is to rewrite each rule one by one. Can you PLS make a feature to be able to copy rules from one WAN to another WAN like a WAN2. I have a list of 10+ rules with very detailed features that i would have to copy one at a time. Maybe have a way to choose which rules to copy or all option...

Thank you,
John Amirkhanian

I can confirm that the functionality works as expected. I agree maybe it would be more suitable to change it to Paste in the pop-up window.
