Does renaming an alias break things that reference it?
-
Hello,
If I create an alias named 'MyServer' that refers to, say, 192.168.2.12, then create a NAT or firewall rule that references 'MyServer', and then I later rename the 'MyServer' alias to 'MyWebServer', do the NAT/firewall rules get broken?
Thanks,
Sean

I think so.
I guess you could search & replace all instances manually with sed. I forget what the config filename is… config.xml?

No. It is fine. At least in non-ancient versions.
