(config network interface my_wan)> ipv4 dhcp_hostname true
(config network interface my_wan)>
b. See Configure SureLink active recovery to detect WAN/WWAN failures
about configuring SureLink for active recovery.

a. Enable IPv6 support:
(config network interface my_wan)> ipv6 enable true
(config network interface my_wan)>

(config network interface my_wan)>
