Bug #16549
openCaptive portal "allowed IPs" does not work if language is not english
0%
Description
In the captive portal configuration, when configuring allowed IPs one has to choose the direction: "Both", "From", "To".
When the interface is in French, the directions are "Les deux", "De", "A".
The problem is that the French names are saved to config.xml, but they are not understood by the configuration later on, and this feature does not work. Here is an example:
<allowedip>
<ip>10.90.10.251</ip>
<sn>32</sn>
<descr></descr>
<dir>les deux</dir>
</allowedip>
I verified that a similar problem exists with Italian.

p.s. Another side effect of the bug, is that symbols → , ← and ⇄ are not displayed in the interface

As this is not a regression, we will not be blocking the release of 25.11 over this issue.
However, once a fix is developed we will release a system patch for it.
