Are those firwall names not still assigned to the interfaces?

If so, remove them from the interfaces first,. then remove the firewall names.

Not removing the ruleset. Just a couple of rules.

are you using interface based firewall or zone based?

if you remove a rule-set's assignment can you then remove individual rules without problem?

If I delete the ruleset from the interface and then commit, the rules will delete.

So i'm assuming interface assigned firewall.

I question if this is really a problem as it's best practice to configure a rule fully before applying it to an interface. Your thoughts on that approach?

This is a regression and has always been possible. Always, meaning back around Vyatta 4.x at minimum.

You most certainly should be able to add/remove rules from a ruleset that is applied to an interface. Rules are not static for the life of a install.

I'm currently running into the same issue, I'm trying to automate to configuration of a firewall so what I do is that I in one go remove a entire firewall ruleset and then set the ruleset with new rules. In the end when running 'show | compare' the ruleset isn't actually being removed but rather being updated. Simply removing a single firewall rule from a ruleset has the same issue.

I am using the zone based firewall.

Hi, on 999.201801111542 can still be reproduced:

Thanks!!

The use case this patch solve is the following:
-we have a firewall with multiple rules set
-the firewall is mapped to an interface
-we want to remove one/or multiple rules from the rule chain (this is not possible using current VyOs version as long as the filter is mapped to an interface)

With this patch the firewall rules can be deleted anytime in realtime.
The code still prevent deleting the firewall rule chain as long as it is mapped to an interface.

I cannot reproduce it in rc6, either with zone-policy or without. I guess the pull request fixed it.
