15.1 Legacy Series / Re: IP setup problem

I currently have a similar configuration however mine is running on Hyper-V 2012 R2, two Virtual switches one for WAN and one for LAN. Below are settings that are currently on mine, do you have your virtual switches setup correctly?
Also something else to watch is make sure your WAN and LAN interface is set to the correct adapter, the first installation I had, I put EN0 as WAN and EN1 as LAN when it needed to be EN0 LAN and EN1 WAN, I'm assuming that's how the OS read the adapters presented to it even though EN0 should have been the adapter as WAN. (Confusing yet?)
Last weird thing I encountered, when I accidently set the wrong interface and I was doing so from the Virtual Console to the server, it would never correctly assign the IP address. I found out that when changing the IP address it asks you one more question at the end, something like "switch to HTTP", answer yes on this if you are attempting these changes from the Virtual Console, and once its working from the web interface switch it back over to https. I have no idea why this was occurring but it snapped out of it and I never had the issue again.
