feature request: hostname in ip firewall

dear all,

i want to suggest a feature which enables mikrotik to do hostname in ip firewall instead of using the real ip address, we only need the hostname to use in src-address or dst-address. this could be useful to block some url, or to nat a dynamic ip address using dynamicdns or so.

/chrone

You can already do this. There is a howto in wiki. Dont have the link handy right now.

oh i see, will look the wiki for sure. thanks :slight_smile:

it can be done but has bugs here is a link


http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Use_host_names_in_firewall_rules

but does work well

I dunno about bugs. But I use it for about 80 customers and it works like a champ.

if it cant find host the scrip stops not much o a bug but it there thats why i sed it works
