pfSense

Yet another Chris left so the bug went into an unassigned state.

JimP please verify, and assign back to me if we can recreate this.
(or fix it if it's a simple fix)

Attempting to store that large of value hits a suhosin variable limit. I updated the description of the ticket to match what's actually happening:

suhosin.post.max_value_length = 500000

I generated a huge list of static routes and copied and pasted chunks in and confirmed it dies around when it would hit that total limit in bytes of the field when submitted.

That's already a fairly large limit for one variable and I'm not sure we want to encourage storing such large amounts of raw entry in the config.

If we do want to change it, it's an easy change where we setup the limits in PHP:

source:src/etc/rc.php_ini_setup#L260

We might also have to change the get and request limit to match the post limit if we do change that value.

That limitation shouldn't be present these days (no suhosin on current PHP versions)
