Hello everyone,

can be a good idea have the possibility to manage the port connection, via a flag that enable or disable the port

Thank you for sharing your idea with us! To better understand your request and evaluate it further, could you please help clarify a few points:

Could you share more about your usage scenario? In what situation would you need to quickly enable or disable a port connection? (Any examples would be very helpful.)
Just to confirm, are you referring to something like this screen, where there would be an additional toggle or column to quickly activate/inactivate a port?

Your input will help us better capture the requirement and consider possible improvements.

Hi @Zyxel_Tina ,

I've changed the subject, I'm referring to a USG Flex H series.
Can be helpful deactivate an unused port for completely deny the access to the system just for security, to reduce the network's attack surface, and to prevent unauthorized device connections. Disabling unused ports, you ensure that only approved devices can connect to the network, protecting against unauthorized access.

And yes, I suppose to insert a enable/disable flag into the Interface —> Port path.

Thank you
