Firewall rules can now be imported and exported. Firewall version 2.1.0, updated May 30th, 2023.

According to the recent 18.0.52 Update message This is only implimented in Linux NOT Firewall rules on Windows Servers - When will we get the Windows Version ? and if we had an affordable Geo block then it would be less of a problem - Another All nighter on the way i feel

In response to @Larsen: Yes, you can import and export via CLI, too. For example:
\# plesk ext firewall --export > your_export_file
or
\# plesk ext firewall --import < your_export_file
\# plesk ext firewall --apply
For help see
\# plesk ext firewall --help-- PD

Thanks for implementing this. Is it possible to use the import via CLI?

My hosting provider does not support the OS-upgrade. So the procedure ist to rent a new server and migrate the content. Which work quite well with Plesk.
Except the transfer of the system settings, whereof the firewalll rules are the most important as they are big usually a bigger number. -

The ability to copy and import all firewall rules from a current server to a brand new one, it is very time consuming doing this manually and it does increase the chance of a human error.

Not many votes on that feature but quite old. Any updates on this?
When installing new servers import/export of rules will be very helpful. -
