      Hi all, i want to clean unused rules in the firewall inherited from another firewall.

      I check the state of the rule in GUI configuration.

      But i do not know if this values: packets, bytes and etc are incremetals or this values reset it some times.

      So, packet: 0 means that no traffic trough this rule at the moment?

      Thanks a lot !

        Yeah if you reboot your system you'll see those all drop to zero I believe. That 0/0 rule is logging though so you could check the logs to see if it's been used recently.
