    Please consider a feature to allow setting the firewall alias on the Static Mapping page

      LIke a host alias for the IP?

      It would require enabling static leases in the DNS servcie so they are resolvable.

        Sorry if I was not using clear terminalogy. Yes, option to add/modify an associated host alias in the firewall when creating a static IP on the DCHP Static Mapping page. In my usage, I am often creating a static mapping and then firewall host alias for the same LAN device.

          That's probably relatively easy to implement. Open a feature request: https://redmine.pfsense.org/
