Any built in or external tools to automate common tasks?
To expand on what /u/stocksy mentions. It’s a bit ghetto without an API and the main workaround method is done by basically editing the xml configuration that is meant to be left to the PFSense UI to manage as to not break things. Your best bet might be an ansible playbook like so: https://github.com/opoplawski/ansible-pfsense I’d suspect managing PFSense in that way is unsupported and probably not recommended by PFSense and your mileage may vary especially as it might lag behind PFSense releases in getting updates. Use at your own risk.
