Feature Description

Right now, if you want to open/close ports, you have to edit csf.conf. It could be useful to add this as something we can open or close via the CLI for easier administration. Not the end of the world, but it'd be a nice QOL feature.

Just to confirm, you're referring to adding a command for opening / closing ports via CLI, and not the web interface, correct?

Yeah a command line thing would be handy. I've actually never used the web UI haha.

Ok, I'll add it on to the list.

Will have to add two commands for adding / removing. And maybe a flag so that you can specify all of the ports in one string instead of just adding / removing one by one.

This would be great for my tooling, so thanks!

Sure thing. I've got an update to roll out first because there's a few important fixes in it, but I'll look at implementing this for the next release.

At the moment, I'm re-vamping the installation scripts so that they accept flags that can be specified. Want to allow for an automated setup so that users can write their own scripts and control how things work.

There's a few other commands on the list to add to CSF as well.
