Nested Aliases

[Trel]

Can Aliases be nested?

For example, could I have "malicious_ips", "ad_servers", "other_things"

and then have an alias "block_these" that contains the previous three aliases which I could then write a rule for?

Excellent, thank you.
That simplifies a lot of my rules

Damned right.  It's nice to have an alias like Web_Servers, for example, that holds a bunch of other aliases that point to IP addresses.
