      Hi all,
      Does anyone know how to export a complete bulk alias for later import?

        There isn't a bulk export for aliases, short of taking a config backup of the Aliases section. But that's in XML format. You can restore that section to another device, but it will completely replace the target's entire aliases section.

            Then export aliases from both, open the files up in a text editor, splice in the new content, and restore.
