Alias "port group"

[atom]

Hello,

Would it be possible to get an alias "port group" analogous to "network group" ?
It would make creating firewall rules easier because you could combine "network group" with "port group".

Thanks a lot,
atom

[zerwes]

you can use lists or ranges in ports aliasesranges use the

Code: [Select]

start:end syntaxor do I understand your request wrong?

[zerwes]

and you can use already defined port aliases in another alias as member too

Code: [Select]

80,443,SERVICES_SMB,...

Hello zerwes,

I am not able to build new port aliases from existing port aliases, because in the drop down box I am only offered a few hosts instead of ports.
It doesn't matter if I select hosts, ports or mac addresses, the drop down box always shows only ( a few) hosts.

Regards,
atom

... can not reproduce this.I can add aliases as expected via the GUI (and ansibel too ...)
can you give some hints about the version etc ... some hints in the log?

[atom]

I'm using the latest version 22.1.6.
I can create new aliases without any problems, but I cannot create aliases with the content of existing aliases, because the drop down box always shows the same entries.

Alias type hosts -> content of drop down box with 11 entries
Alias type networks -> ontent of drop down box with 11 entries
alias type ports -> ontent of drop down box with 11 entries
alias type URL -> ontent of drop down box with 11 entries
alias type URL Table -> ontent of drop down box with 10 entries
alias type MAC adresss ->  ontent of drop down box with 11 entries
alias type Dynamic IPv6 Hosts ->  ontent of drop down box with 11 entries

only for GeoIP and Network group  is the content of the drop down box correct.

The content of the drop down box always contains the following entries:
1 x GeoIP
8 x Network
2 x Host

At the moment 161 aliases are defined.

[zerwes]

the count should not matter, on some boxes I have ~ 400 aliases...
Are you aware of the fact that the  Content field is not really a select box? The entries shown will be filtered while you type ... ?

[atom]

No, I did not notice, but now ...

[zerwes]

  ... it's never to late to ... sometimes solutions are as simple ...

[atom]

Yes, quite obviously.   

Thanks
