Description

The field lengths for the network statements within the Free Range Routing package's Access Control List and Prefix-List are tiny and cannot display the whole entry.

This is a usability problem as the details cannot be read without clicking within the box and then scrolling, or copying then pasting into a text file.

I've unwittingly had errors in copying and pasting as the field is so small - it's very easy to copy only partial information, and I've found sometimes the end doesn't copy, such as the subnet mask.
The human error wasn't discovered until much later as the section in error was hidden as the field was too small.

FIX: The field needs to big enough to accommodate the full dotted quad with 3 decimals per "quad" (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xx).
e.g.
192.168.128.192/26

Should be an easy win. See screenshots. Thanks.

Jim (or anyone from the team), can we get this fixed?
If I knew how to expand the windows in PHP (or even knew PHP) I would submit a PR but I don't.
This is a quality of life improvement when working in the GUI. I need to see what my prefix ranges are when editing or just confirming whats configured. Its very difficult to do without going into the CLI and confirming with a 'show running-config' but that's unnecessary.
