Yes. Confirmed on:

This essentially prevents creating any rules/NAT etc with aliases with capital letters, so a major issue!

Thanks.

See pull request https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/3225 for a suggested fix.

I'm sorry but this is still broken. I go to Firewall - NAT - Port Forward, there's a rule with an alias called "RAS" used for source. On clicking edit, it gets lowercased to "ras". On saving, it naturally bombs out with "ras is not a valid source IP address or alias."

What's the point of all this messing with letter case?! :(

I reverted all these changes until the proper solution is committed.

The 'real' solution here is convert the IPv6 to binary in PHP (compress (?) in PHP dialect) after that, the IPv6 is sanitized and can be saved and printed as requested by spec.

I have added a new function addretolower() to detect if a string is a valid IPv6 address, and if so convert it to lower case. I plan to make my way though the pages that need it over the next few days.
