General Discussion / GIF-Interface and changeing or choosing the local address
« on: October 04, 2024, 11:53:35 am »
Hello,
it seems to be impossible to change the local address or the local interface in a GIF-interface to something other than WAN.
I had an gif0-Interface with the WAN-Interface as parent, local address "WAN". Now my internet-traffic will use another interface, called WAN2, the old interface WAN will be disabled. So I tried to change the local address of the gif0 to WAN2 and applied the changes. The problem: In the overview WAN is still shown, if I edit the interface, WAN2 is shown.
I created a new GIF-interface, gif1 with WAN2 as local address: Same behaviour: The overview told me, the address would be WAN, editing says WAN2.
Is it a bug in the user interface or is it not possible to use an other interface than WAN?
Regards
