Default name for new gateway on OPT is invalid
-
Using pfSense-2.0-ALPHA-ALPHA-20090317-0314.iso full install.
I was testing adding a second WAN on OPT1. Went to interfaces, OPT1 and enabled.
Set for static, set IP and subnet. The gateway option had a handy 'add a new one' button.
When adding a new gateway this way, the name defaulted to OPT1-GW, which appears to be an invalid name.
Changing the name to OPT1GW works fine. For the lazy who just want to click-through, setting an invalid default causes confusion.
