Firewall entries disappear?

I am updated all the way to the latest and have no remaining updates on my Proxmox instance.

When I first setup Proxmox, the first step I did was enable the firewall for the hypervisor and only accept packets from my home IP address. This was all done via the Firewall > Add via the Proxmox Web UI. A few days after I was trying to figure out something and clicked the Firewall again on the UI and the entries are gone as shown below:

This worried me a bit since I thought my Proxmox UI was open to the public, but it appears the values I set are located in /etc/pve/firewall/cluster.fw

Is this expected behavior or a bug? I would think it would persist within the UI after creation.
