How to access the WEBGui locally on the machine in which PFSense is installed?

I have to change the WAN IPs and so will no doubt lose access via the WAN.

From the console, it is a bit awkward, but you can run:

links https://127.0.0.1/

You'll probably need to press 'g' and navigate to /index.php by hand after logging in.

Or use the console menu option to reset the WAN IP that way. Changing WAN IP addresses is something that is a bit tricky to attempt remotely. You'll also need to fix the gateway.

Might be safer to download a config.xml backup and replace the IPs and gateway there and then restore it.

Thanks.  Where is config.xml located?
