I have hundreds of devices on my network. I have some rules in place for my entire network, but I want to exclude one device (my work computer) as I need to access things there I want blocked everywhere else. I know I can create groups for this and use the Quarantine feature, but it is a pain to do that every time a new device comes online. I would love to have rules for All Devices and then add one exception device. Is this possible, or does anyone have a better idea?

  We are likely to add "all except x" feature to ad blocking and a few others. But we have not considered making all devices with exception to be generic, I will forward and see what our designer/dev thoughts about this

  Have you considered turning on Emergency Access just for your work computer? It helps bypass some blocking features on this specific device while keeping your rules active globally. More details about emergency access can be found here: https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/16639311975059
