Title: [SOLVED] Use External (advanced) Alias in firewall rules
Post by: Maarten on July 06, 2018, 03:43:09 pm

Hi,

Is there a way to use the "External Alias" in your firewall rules? Looks like you're not able to assign this type of alias to a firewall rule. This should work right?

Best regards,

Maarten

Hi Maarten,

You're right, that should work, but doesn't seem to do so.
Apparently we forgot to add it to the address selection, this https://github.com/opnsense/core/commit/c2e75d260664f7909c4cfa13fb62e525fd67d0e2 should fix it.

Install via a console using:

Code: [Select]

opnsense-patch c2e75d26

Best regards,

Ad
