      Hello, we need to allow lot of hosts from "akamaiedge.net", "kamaitechnologies.com" and "pple.com.edgekey.net". There use to be an way to enter *.<domain>.
      it seems the option has been taken away.
      Am I missing something?

        That is impossible to accommodate. The rules must work with IP addresses. The hostnames are translated to IP addresses by resolving the hostnames, and you can't resolve *.<domain> via DNS.

        If there was an option to enter that before, it was broken and never worked. It had only ever worked with complete fully qualified domain names on pfSense.
