      Can you implement Alias names in the firewall logs.

      So i can quickly look in the firewall logs and see " ah, thats my work network hitting my FTP port " whys its doing that

      Otherwise i have to google the IP then realise its a work IP or what ever the alias i have already got….

        An IP address can belong to many aliases, so that is not viable in most cases.

          just would like to see my alias in the firewall logs rather than the IP's , especially if my alias only has one ip or in a range
