Description

Related to #7755.

In the settings page for Avahi, the deny interfaces list shows assigned interfaces only.

I have openVPN interfaces (ovpns1 etc.) that are unassigned and have their rules set on the firewall's OpenVPN tab. I can see from the logs that Avahi is registering address records on each ovpns port that is unassigned.

There is no GUI way to exclude these ports from the multicast list. A whitelist as suggested in #7755 would solve this problem.

Since Avahi pkg version 2.0.x, it switched to using whitelisting, so this is no longer relevant.
