Bugs in Proxmox Firewall

[ermanishchawla]

I have created an alias with a name
Mgmt with IP 192.168.10.100 at Datacenter Level

I created a policy at VM level using that alias and policy has worked fine

Now later I thought of changing name of alias from Mgmt to Management at Datacenter

Policy at VM level is not changed.

I believe it is a bug, if it is not a bug, I request to raise this as feature request to track use of Alias and according update wherever they are used

This is actually standard behavior, alias name changes are not updated automatically.

Standard behaviour in firewalls is updation automatically with refernces to usage of aliases not what is implemented in proxmox

Some firewalls don't even allow renaming aliases and PVE's standard behavior is to not update.
