Interfaces
b. Set the device for the LAN:
(config network interface my_wan)> device device
(config network interface my_wan)>
6. Configure IPv4 settings:
IPv4 support is enabled by default. To disable:
n
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 enable false
(config network interface my_wan)>
Configure the WAN to be a DHCP client:
n
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 type dhcp
(config network interface my_wan)>
a. Optional IPv4 configuration items:
i. Set the IP metric:
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 metric num
(config network interface my_wan)>
See
about metrics.
ii. Set the relative weight for default routes associated with this interface. For multiple
active interfaces with the same metric, the weight is used to load balance traffic to
the interfaces.
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 weight num
(config network interface my_wan)>
iii. Set the management priority. This determines which interface will have priority for
central management activity. The interface with the highest number will be used.
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 mgmt num
(config network interface my_wan)>
iv. Set the MTU:
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 mtu num
(config network interface my_wan)>
v. Configure how to use DNS:
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 use_dns value
(config network interface my_wan)>
where value is one of:

always: DNS will always be used for this WAN; when multiple interfaces have
