Hi,

I have several mangles that contain the work “incoming from” in his comment (for example: “prerouting incoming from ‘eth08client’ outgoing to ‘bridge-local’”), I would like to remove all [/ip firewall mangle] that contain the works “incoming from” in comment… there is a way to do it with foreach ?

There is, but you don’t have to use foreach at all. You can just use “find” to match the correct items:

/ip firewall mangle remove [find where comment~="incoming from"]

The “find” gets you IDs of all items that contain “incoming from” in comment, and “remove” then removes all of the matched IDs in one go.

Just check it and got an error :confused:

“missing value for where (line 1 column 48)”

fix Roll
/ip firewall mangle remove [find where comment=“incoming from”]

Oops… Sorry… It’s been a while since I’ve used the regex operator… It’s

/ip firewall mangle remove [find where comment=~"incoming from"]

(the “~” is AFTER the “=”, not before)

Without the “~”, you’d get items where the whole comment says “incoming from”, not a comment that has “incoming from” somewhere within it.

Thanks!
