      Does anyone know how to import a bunch of new enteries (IP addresses) to an existing alias as in the GUI, you can only add one at a time?

        Check this

        edit: also this (in case you have a really long list)

        Not sure if CE version has this functionality or not, but the plus version does.
        Located at the bottom of the Aliases / IP page,

          If using that import button note there was a bad bug in 23.05 fixed in 23.05.1 (which would be in 2.7). It should exist on both.

          Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
          When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to reboot, or more depending on packages, and device or disk speed.
