Firewall port forwarding - string

It would be really helpful if in the Fleet Manager for a device, ports which are forwarded through the firewall from WAN->LAN could have a string associated with them.

Given that each port that is opened is for a specific reason, and it may not be obvious which protocols or services use each port, especially once a machine has been commissioned for a while. It would be really helpful if when a port forwarding rule is added, a string field was available as a note.

This would mean that any no longer required forwarded ports could be easily removed, as you wouldn’t have go to other internal documentation to understand what the purpose of each forwarded port is.

It would also be nice to be able to leave forwarded ports in the list, but be able to disable them temporarily (or enable them temporarily), but that would be less useful and probably more difficult to implement.
