      Been a while since I need to mod my config, but I can't find where to assign a new interface.

      Running: 2.4.4-Release-p2 on a SG-1000

      What I'm trying to do is get access to my modems admin page from inside the fire wall, easy as per Doc by when on the Interface Assignments page I have no options?

      Interface Assignments

      I'm thinking it's because my WAN is already assign to a physical port, so how do I add a OPT for the modem from here?

      Regars,

        That part of the document only applies if you have a PPPoE WAN, which you don't appear to have. If you did, your WAN would show as PPPoE (e.g. pppoe0) and you'd be able to add cpsw0 as an additional interface.

        Depending on how your modem is setup, you might only need the outbound NAT part, or maybe an IP alias VIP for the modem subnet, plus some outbound NAT to match.

            The modem is connected to the mvneta2 interface which is already assigned as OPT2. If that is in the same subnet as the modem interface you should be able to connect to it.
