Hello,

This is a feature request for the Deco BE63 but I think it would apply to any Mesh/Router system.  

 

When I scan my system for optimizations I see a Risk that my Port Forwarding is enabled.  I know this and it is purposeful.  But I do know that I don't need port forwarding all the time.  I would very much like it if I could disable a rule temporarily untill it is needed then only enable it at that time.  The only option I see when I choose "Go to disable it" is the ability to delete my rules.  I don't want to remove them (as rebuilding them would require me to memorize IPs and port numbers) I would like the ability to disable each rule when not in use and only enable them when I need them.  Having a disabled rule in the configuration should have no impact on security and would limit my exposure yet give me the ability to reenable it rapidly when I needed, for only as long as I need it.   

 

This would be a great value add to my home network security.  I believe others would agree.
