Why not Alias in captive portal?

[danesco]

Hi, why we can not use alias in the captive portal rules like in the firewall. This can be usefull for allowed ips and hosts.

[eri--]

Because nobody has seen the need for it and noone has pushed it, yet.

Well, for example in my case i have a vpn in a box with captive portal, if i need to monitor the access points from outside i need to put a ip allowed rule for all ips.

But ok, i thought that was because the system of the firewall and captive portal differs

Aliases are strictly in pf, captive portal is in ipfw.
