Alias Import Missing

Hi,

I would like to import a huge list of CIDR Networks into the Aliases but the submenu was removed in 18.7.6 (is now a hidden submenu in the XML file).

Is there now a new way to do this?

Did you have any luck? I'm new to OPNsense coming from the other *sense and I saw and actually used the feature but for a tiny list only because I had just installed and was still exploring...then updated because it told me I was vulnerable to Blah and Blah2 and I blindly hurried to click the clinical-sounding-labeled button that's basically "update" or something I forgot what it says and now I'm kicking myself for not having it used it before it went away.

How did you manage??--I'm going to try deploying the firewall on a VM, importing the aliases and making a backup of the firewall to selectively restore the aliases--and for a minute I almost missed out on that because for some reason I deleted the installer, something I never do, but the ISO server had the recycle bin feature on on that specific share. I'm pushing my luck hard here. :D
I'm a bit dyslexic and it makes me forgo letters at the end of words. What gets written is written correctly though, I have good orthography in one or two languages, ironically. It's messed up, I know, I'm sorry. Just pretend you're my auto-complete. :)

You can copy+paste a comma-separated list of your aliases directly into the GUI.


Cheers,
