How many network(s) can we add in alias ?
-
Hello everyone
I have a pfsense 2.4.4-RELEASE-p1. I have an alias problem.
I created an alias with ~100 subnets of a operator cloud, I created a rule with this alias, but it doesn't work.
To check, I created a rule with just the desired network, and it works.
So I'm wondering, is there a network limitation in an alias ?
Thanks a lot in advance for your answers
Best regards

@whoisperfect first thing is 2.4.4p1 is quite old and no longer a supported version. I would highly suggest you update to current which would be either 23.05.1 for + or 2.7 for CE

Your version if from December 2018..
You can validate your alias contains what it should via looking in tables in diagnostics.

@whoisperfect Who's the cloud operator?
You could create an alias using their ASN number and pfBlocker, if you wanted all their subnets.

Hello @NogBadTheBad,
It is Google Cloud Plaform.
The pfsense is not directly connected on GCP, i have 3 equipments between pfsense and GCP, and we communicate with private ips, not public ip. (Class A)
Thanks a lot Andy for your help :o)
