You can define and test variables in ferm, and according to the man page, you can pass variables from the ferm command line with the --def option. So it should be possible to run: ferm --def '$enable_i2p=1' /etc/ferm/ferm.conf to reload the firewall and activate some additional rules from the general ferm.conf file on demand. Not tested though. -- sajolida
