    Hello fellow Netgate community members,

    Does anyone have a default copy of the config.xml file one before any config is installed the one right after the wizard pops up?

    I want to use it to reference separators I have ghost entries from years ago and they sometimes caused issues when updating software. I want to know if I can delete the whole separator section here now that I found my issue and removed the ghost entries.

                    <separator>
    			<wan></wan>
    			<lan></lan>
    			<opt1></opt1>
    			<floatingrules></floatingrules>
    			<ethernetrules></ethernetrules>
    		</separator>
    

    can it just be <separator></separator> or can I just delete this whole section?

    I have another one that shows this

    	</rule>
    		</outbound>
    		<separator></separator>
    		<rule>
    

    If I removed them all to KISS or simplify it can I just delete the section or do they need to be blank?

      Then default config is in /conf.default/config.xml
      When you reset the config that is applied and then some hardware specific settings are applied.
