      Hi there,

      I just removed an OPT1 network card physically from my PFSense 2.0.3 box. Now all the old filter rules associated to this card are not visible in the GUI but are still in the config.xml
      Is there a way to cleanup this ?

      Cheers

        Not automatically. You can backup the config.xml edit them out and restore.
        Or delete the rules before you remove the card.

        They are not placed into the ruleset so they are inactive in the config so it doesn't really matter that they are there.
