Feature Request (allow to configure Zones) #432

I use a Laptop, working with Zones would be really helpful. I'm not a network expert but I tried to propose an example.

If possible but not that important would be a possibility to control the zone more in detail. grafik

Hi @Mannshoch ,

It's an interesting feature request. I think it falls into the UI improvement category #424 .

Could you explain the working mode a little bit more? How would you expect the rules to match the connections on every zone? By destination network/IP?

Or is it just a different way of organizing the rules?

At first I known the basic zone feature under Windows. I searched the Internet and found this blog about firewalld (🇩🇪) https://curius.de/2021/06/linux-desktop-mit-firewalld-absichern/ but because I wish to use OpenSnitch I had the Idea about an enhancement request for that.

I would collect the Gatway IP and MAC Address and If the Mac address change, detect it as a new Zone.
