Changes are:
More details about these lists on the readme:
I tested it at home, and it works for me. However, I don’t use VPN on the router, and I only have a R7800 to test... It should be fine, but in I prefer to go through this beta stage first.
What to look for?
Well, hard to give a list. Just make sure all is working as expected. You can experiment with lists and the test -ip= argument to check all is fine.
When from a terminal you run (yes repetition is intentional):
Make sure that in the uprear information section, it says:
- iptables: rules were already set with: ...
And not:
- iptables: rules were (re)set with: ...
That’s it. Enjoy

Changes are:
- Since iprange is now inside the @Voxel firmware, I removed the portions of code used to work without it, and made aegis relying more on it, making aegis lighter.
- aegis has now the ability to have custom blacklists and whitelists specific to WAN or VPN.
- the upraising, logging and status portions of the code have been heavily changed to adapt for that change.
- optimizations, bug fixes.
- web companion has been updated to work with new status and log code, and the lists editor has been changed to allow to view/create or edit default lists (sources, custom global blacklist, custom global whitelist, custom WAN black and white lists, VPN custom black and white lists).
