It would be very convenient if it were possible to create a firewall rule automatically based on forwarding!
I find this part of the settings very inconveniently implemented now
Other vendors make forwarding much easier, but here you can't even copy a rule\policy as far as I can see. And if you need to open a lot of ports, you'll have to configure it all for quite a long time

    Hi @Aleksey_Kh,

    Could you share the vendors' name for us to survey? Thanks.

    Example - Mikrotik, DrayTek, Keenetic, there you only need to create a port forwarding rule.
    Fortigate - there is also no need to create a separate firewall permission rule for port forwarding
