In some cases it would be useful to be able to port forward and filter the source by DNS hostname and/or IP addresses.

 

e.g. Limit port forwarding for the software controller ports to just your documented site WAN addresses and DDNS entries for sites that don't have statics.

 

It's technically possible to write your own script to constantly refresh such a port forwarding rule to accomplish that behavior via the controller API but it would be cool if it was built-in.
