Host Aliases Allow URLs, Filter Reload Lacks Error Message

[landonix]

From my reading on pf lists/macros, URLs are not allowed. However, names are allowed. The webUI for alias should be updated from URLs to names, to avoid confusing users who may actually enter URLs.

@landonix URL's can be used to download lists from, so they are in OPNsense actually an option.
some additional info can be found in our docs https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/aliases.html?highlight=alias

Or do you mean something else?

[landonix]

My apologies. The issue exists when a URL is entered into the host aliases as shown here. No error is provided thereafter showing that rule mods are failing to load.
