    What kind of configuration capabilities are you looking for?

    It is highly likely in the subsequent two releases, we will add some of the more/popular configuration items to the MSP. The team already has a design of the "network" side configuration.

    Here is what is seems it should support:

    1) Ability to set name of any device (I think this works now)

    2) Ability to put a device in a group

    3) Ability to create new groups

    4) Ability to set a device type

    5) Ability to assign reserved DHCP address for any device

    6) Ability to setup port forwards for devices

    In the ideal world I would like to do that remotely via the portal

    Basically I feel the MSP should be a computer usable version of the Firewalla App.

    Thanks for your feedback, Mark.

    Managing device groups is supported now, but you need to change your view from "All Boxes" to a specific box from the top header of the web because currently device groups cannot be managed across boxes. 

    Setting a device type is a fairly new feature, the MSP is catching up. As for managing DHCP reservations and port forwardings, it's on our to-do list.

    Isn't this a contradictory sentence? Device groups are supported, but devices in groups cannot be managed that way.

    What does it mean?

    Hi Ross, devices in groups can be managed on the MSP UI, they just can't be "across boxes". For example, under Box A, you can group device 1 and device 2 together, apply rules, and view the flows of the group. However, you can't group device 1 in Box A and device 2 in Box B together, as they belong to different boxes.
