Feature Request.
Add an option to automatically disable a rule when it is cloned on the NGFW. This eliminates the need for manual disabling—a step that can be easily missed—and streamlines the workflow.
Cloning is the fastest and most efficient way to create new rules, but it also introduces risk: incomplete or unreviewed rules can be unintentionally committed to policy. A “Clone as Disabled” option provides a built-in safety guard, ensuring that only rules explicitly reviewed and enabled by an engineer are deployed.
The existing Clone (Active) behavior should remain unchanged for teams that do not require this additional control, giving engineers flexibility while improving overall policy safety and confidence.
