Description

To Replicate :

Firewall > Aliases > IP > Add
• Name : Anything
• Description : Anything
• Type : Host(s)

Insert into IP or FQDN 192.168.1.0/24 through 192.168.20.0/24. When you go back to view, either A) The IPs are not in the group as there is a hard limit. Or B) Web browser does not show the full length of the group. Can you please confirm which is true, A or B? If it’s A, can you expand the limit. I am trying to had 12 x /24 subnets in as Host for random IP usage.

We do not impose any limits on the number of VIPs, but if you "need" that many than you are most likely designing or implementing something incorrectly.

Please post on the forum to discuss the issue.

I tried with 10 /24 nets = 10 * 256 = 2560 individual entries. It displayed in Firefox 51.0.1, but of course it takes time for the GUI page to open and there are a few warning popups about scripts running for a long time - have to press "Continue" a few times.

As Jim said, if you really need an alias with that many individual entries then it is better done some other way - network alias or URL alias or...

When I load it in Chrome its cut off in the middle when I have 12 x /24s. I then reloaded it again, and the cut off was the same exact spot. I then went to IE, same spot. I delete the Alias and created a new group. Same cut off spot. I was told by your support staff that this was the only way to add this large subset of IPs for Outbound Nat Round Robin.
