Organize PF Rules by Category
|
|
=============================
|
|
OPNsense firewall rules can be organized per category.
|
|
These categories can be freely chosen or selected.
|
|
|
|
.. Note::
|
|
|
|
This feature was added in version 16.1.1. Always keep your system up to date.

|
Adding a category to a rule
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
To add a category to a rule, open or create a new rule and scroll to **Category**.
|
|
Then just add you category, if this is the first rule with a category no selection
|
|
options will be visible.

Only when there are rules with a defined category, the **Filter by category**

If you have a large number of categories, then just start typing and in search
