Feature Request: Copy Rule(s)

Thu Oct 18, 2007 4:15 am

What I think would be a useful feature is the ability in winbox to clone an existing rule, or copy rules from one winbox to another directly.
mainly firewall rules and such.

A small feature but useful anyway.

add copy-from=
Excellent, a few days ago i had to use my phone to SSH into a newly confg'd mt WIFI AP and needed to clone a /int wire sec profile to change a users WPA2 PSK , i was trying copy, duplicate but niether worked (nor did <tab> show them as options)... I eventually did a rough work around-- export , copy, paste into ios notepad to edit and cleanup to a single line, then paste that back into ssh terminal).

Wish i had known about this (add copy-from=xxx name=yyy), its a easy and great way to clone rules via CLI or terminal !

(would be nice if there were a "duplicate" or "copy" primary action though (ie duplicate from=xxx to=yyy ) -- but above works just the same, even if its not as intuitive.

tks
