Nsa2700 any way to copy or duplicate an access rule

BillTBillT Newbie ✭
in Mid Range Firewalls

I do not see an option that lets me make a copy of an access rule.

I seem to have to create every single one from scratch, unless I make it immediately after the last one I created.

This is very tedious, especially if a rule is needed across several Zones, or you just need to change one value.

I know you can do it via the CLI, but that method can easily introduce errors if you are not super careful.

I would prefer a solution through the graphical interface.

How does someone request a change such as this? Or if it exists, and I'm not seeing it please tell me.

Thanks,

    @BillT no you can't clone a rule, which is a total bummer. You can clone NAT rules, but you cannot clone Access or Routing Rules, which feels like a half-baked UI sometimes.

    You have to open a RFE with your SNWL rep, after all these years there is no official way to do this here in the forum.

    April 2020 was my last try on this.
