Nested Aliases
-
Can Aliases be nested?
For example, could I have "malicious_ips", "ad_servers", "other_things"
and then have an alias "block_these" that contains the previous three aliases which I could then write a rule for?

Search for "nested" - answer = yes. -
Excellent, thank you.
That simplifies a lot of my rules -

Damned right. It's nice to have an alias like Web_Servers, for example, that holds a bunch of other aliases that point to IP addresses.
