What enables saving additional interfaces?
I can see the interfaces other than LAN/WAN.
For example, I want to set one up to connect to a wireless access point .

I go in the UI, go to interface assignments, select the unused interface, name it and save.

Nothing.

The interface is still listed in the unused interface list and no new interface appears in the list under interfaces.

What am I missing?

Did you press "+" before saving? Needs to be added first, then saved.

Yep, that's the issue.

I don't see anything in the UI that suggests that's required or even what that "+" is for thus the glaring miss.  :/

Thank you.

You ADD an interface to the list of interfaces, then you save that list.

You ADD a rule to the list of firewall rules, then you save that list.

...

Almost all of the UI works that way.
