Does anyone know if it's possible to add comments to packet filter rules?

Jun 02, 2017Not sure about versions prior to 12.1.2, but you can added a description to each packet filter rule this way:
In TMSH:list net packet-filter all-properties
You will see a description field under each rule. To add a description/comment...
edit net packet-filter all-properties
Using Vi interface commands...
- Insert key = Insert/Replace mode
- If you make a mistake: hit Escape key, type ":u", and press Enter. Repeat if needed.
- Do NOT use the numeric keypad
- When done hit the Escape key, type ":wq!", press Enter, Y to save.
description "This is my comment"
Exit and save as described above.
The rest of the modifying abilities is recommended to use the Configuration Utility GUI. The descriptions will NOT show in the GUI when done.
