      Again in what world do you live in that such feature would make sense ;) Just like click on blocked rule.. But allow thing for 15 minutes thing has zero use in the enterprise... But watchguard has it?

      I think maybe there is something to allow access via their proxy rules, not their firewall rules. You understand the watchguards do proxy as well as just L3 firewall rules.

        Your Watchguard rep is incorrect.

        He has sold more firewalls than he can remember and this question has never come up. If it is there then nobody is talking to him about it. I asked him as if I was looking and he says "why?" LOL

          I don't personally consider Watchguard enterprise grade myself.

              Alright, this is getting stupid now. The feature doesn't exist in pfSense and he has the only workaround. The end.

                @chpalmer very true... I have never seen it used in any enterprise we have ever supported..

                In a mom and pop shop, you click the eazy rule... And then 15 min later or 1 hour later you delete the rule... How freaking hard is that?? I mean really?

                    Suture yourself.
                    Some other software firewall (opensense) WILL include it and then they'll have just one more reason not to use pfsense.
                    Juuuuuuust sayin.

                    Not everyone who uses pfsense in necessarily is an environment that pure enterprise. I got no dog in this fight. Just pointing something out. You guys are Sooooooo sensitive to suggestions. lol

                      Yeah they will be leaving in droves flocking to that feature that zero people need ;)

                      Still waiting for the screenshot where you do this in watchguard, which you said it does... I placed my bet on the rep that says it doesn't..

                      You are more than welcome to code that up since its so easy, and submit the PR...

                          I believe it started when you scolded the product like a young child..

                            If they do allow it - it sure not in their create policy documentation that is for sure ;) Why should we have to wait for his rep? You are sure they do it - so you don't have access to a watchguard that you can take a screenshot showing it?

                                I must admit that I am impressed with how quickly you can manage to piss off senior members here. Frankly, nobody really cares if Watchguard has that feature or not since it's moot. pfSense doesn't have it, so if that feature is critical to you then I guess you will be using a Watchguard and have no more need of pfSense.

                                    I just got sent this. Rep said "Its done under schedules" Looks familiar. You guys can run through these pages if you want. Im not.

                                      I don't think any one is opposed to adding such a feature - if there was actual call for it.. Never seen such a request before that I recall... So its not like the users of pfsense are beating the drums demanding this pretty much useless feature..

                                      If you want it - then code it... Or your more than welcome to switch over to something that does it.. Like this watchguard.. Yeah last time I checked their pricing was right in line with pfsense being FREE ;)

                                      edit: Well clearly your not from what he posted, you do it via schedules - just like you do on pfsense, just like you can do on juniper SRX, etc. etc.

                                        @HansSolo Why do you keep saying that? It's not my rep and I have no knowledge of Watchguards.

                                          Honestly????
                                          YOU GUYS SHOULD THANK ME FOR THE SUGGESTIONS AND CRITICISM.

                                          You're right...most sheeple won't say a word.

                                          Is technical support free?

                                          pfsense is pretty darn good. I've said that a NUMBER of times. For the price, HELL YEAH!!!! But products THRIVE (or die) on consumer criticism and feedback and the response they make to it.

                                          A wise development board NEVER tells a consumer with a suggestion or complaint to F - off.
