Network Definition -> DNS Group Wildcards

Vertech228
Is there a way to define a new Network Definition for a "DNS Group" that uses wildcards?  

For example, I was just setting up a firewall rule to allow certain outgoing ports to be opened when going to 1 of 6 internet license servers for Sketchup (e.g. license1.sketchup.com, lincense2.sketchup.com, etc.).  I got it to work, but had to define 6 DNS hosts to make it work.  If I could define a DNS Group with a wildcard "license*.sketchup.com or license?.sketchup.com then it would make that process a lot easier.  Any way to do that?

Or perhaps there is a better way to accomplish the same thing with UTM 9.

Thanks.

    You did it the only way possible as DNS doesn't do wildcards.  Sketchup should just have a single FQDN license.sketchup.com with six A records, and then you could use a DNS Group.

    It would be cool though if it were possible to use an expression like

    license[1..6].sketchup.com
