      Hey Guys,

      Since 2.3.2-RELEASE I can't seem to use an alias for new firewall rules.

      When I attempt to submit changes I get a bubble popup on the "Single host or alias" field saying:

      "Please match the format requested."

      All rules with previous alias's appear to be working and I can seem to edit them.

      Anyone having this issues?

          Same issue.  Changing version of Chrome does not fix it.  Changing back to earlier version of pfsense does fix it -> pfsense update broke something.  :(

              Hello,

              I'm seeing the same issue on pfsense-2.3.2 release version.  I've tried both Chrome and Safari (both desktop) and both exhibit this behavior.  Interestingly, it works fine from the iPad running iOS 10.
