    Hi,

    if I rename a alias that is used in firewall rules instead of rename that alias in all affected rules I get an error that sounds like this: "Unresolvable source alias 'AliasName' for rule 'Rule with AliasName'
    Is this a Bug or a "Feature"?
    I searched the forum but didn't found anything related to this.
    I'm on pfsense 2.5.0

    Thanks and regards,
    fireodo

      We're aware and tracking it internally.

      We should have a fix shortly which can be applied to 2.5.0/21.02.

        There is a fix in place now.

        You can install the System Patches package and then create an entry for 585e7567d0e308ce440ff1b0651976c97fe58115 to apply the fix.
