Did you try it with quotes only and expand the variables with $var as in the manpage?
This would point out if there is a bug in the -n check option and/or in the parsing code of relayd. -Stefan Le 17 juil. 2022 16:08, Paul Pace <[email protected]> a écrit : On 2022-07-17 06:51, Stuart Henderson wrote: > On 2022-07-17, Paul Pace <[email protected]> wrote: >> On 2022-07-17 00:28, Kapfhammer, Stefan wrote: >>> You need to define a table. >>> See relayed.conf manual page >>> Section macros >> >> The macros section does include include creating tables that contain a >> macro: >> >> >> MACROS >> Macros can be defined that will later be expanded in context. >> Macro >> names must start with a letter, digit, or underscore, and may >> contain any >> of those characters.

The configurations pass relayd -n checks and services work as expected with the following macro syntax: adminip1=203.0.113.5 adminip2 = 203.0.113.6 adminip3="203.0.113.7" adminip4 = "203.0.113.8" > >> table <adminips1> { 203.0.113.5 } >> table <adminips2> { >> $adminip1 >> $adminip2 >> } >> >> When I replace $adminip1 with <adminips1> or <adminips2> in a working >> protocol >> filter rule on line 20, I get a bunch of syntax errors beginning on >> line >> 20. >> >> Thank you, >> >> Paul >> >> >>> >>> -Stefan >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> Le 16 juil. 2022 22:09, Paul Pace <[email protected]> a écrit : >>> Hello! >>> >>> I'm working on a relayd.conf configuration where I want to limit >>> access >>> to the path of an admin panel at /admin/ by using the from parameter >>> in >>> a protocol filter rule. >>> >>> I expect more than one IP address so want to use a macro with more >>> than >>> one IP address (or even more than one macro), similar to how I use >>> them >>> in httpd.conf and pf.conf: >>> >>> admin_ips = "{ 203.0.113.5, 198.51.100.103 }" >>> >>> When I add this to line 4 of relayd.conf and before creating a rule, >>> I >>> get: >>> >>> relayd -n >>> /etc/realyd.conf:4: syntax error >>> >>> Have I just merely made a syntax error or is what I want to do not >>> possible in relayd.conf? >>> >>> Thank you, >>> >>> >>> Paul >> >>
