On my 26.7.1_1 installation of OPNsense I recently successfully ran the rules migration and switched to the new firewall and NAT rules UI. However there was one oddity that I noticed. For the Crowdsec plugin I am having TWO aliases for IPv4, crowdsec_blocklists and crowdsec_blacklists (and similarly two aliases for IPv6).
The "blacklists" alias appears in a floating rule, which I manually created some years ago, the blocklists alias appears in automatically generated rules (see attached pic). Apparently only the ipv4 crowdsec_blocklists alias is populated (see attached pic).
I'm wondering, what happened here. Did Crowdsec at some point in time change the naming scheme of their aliases from xxx_blacklists to xxx_blocklists? If so, I assume I could just delete my manual rules and delete the alias crowdsec_blacklists and crowdsec6_blacklists. Or does these aliases actually mean different things?
Thanks in advance for any insights.
The terms "whitelist" and "blacklist" are considered racist and most projects replace(d) them with e.g. "allowlist" and "blocklist". Similar "master" in version control is replaced by "main" and "master/slave" in high availability by e.g. "primary/secondary" or "active/standby".
Kind regards,
Patrick
