Network Services Filter - Keep rule but not make active

[nodii]

So I use the NSF to block access to 111.119.22.0/24 from one of my devices on my network. The thing is, I only need this rule to be active when downloading large files from said device. Once the download is done, I delete the rule. Having said that, I'm doing large downloads from the device at least once a day.

At the moment I can only delete or create the rule to block 111.119.22.0/24. Can we change this so that I can keep my rule ALL the time, but perhaps select a check box as to whether it's active or not?

It'd make things a lot easier than having to create the rule everyday, sometimes multiple times.

Thanks very much.

EDIT: Absolutely love the fw. So donation is incoming! (Thanks again!)

This kind of change will have to be made by Asus, as it requires changing the stored data structure, breaking backward compatibility. Would also require a complete redesign of the webui architecture, which isn't designed to handle editable entries.

No worries. Since I'm only working with the one rule, I've figured out it's just as easy to select ON/OFF for Enable Network Services Filter. Keeps my rule, while only applying it when the filter is ON. Thanks again.
