WAN IP has become Virtual IP after power failure

rmwork

So the power failure was me accidentally pulling the cord out of the power brick while trying to move something...

The problem is that after powering back up the WAN IP is now a Virtual IP I had created.

Prior to reboot:
WAN IP - xxx.xxx.xxx.226
Virtual IP - xxx.xxx.xxx.229

After reboot:
WAN IP has become - xxx.xxx.xxx.229

You can see this on the dashboard under interfaces and is in fact the WAN IP as my site-to-site VPN and client VPN broke until I changed the IP on those to 229.

If I look at Interfaces -> WAN -> IPv4 Address it shows 226 in that field. How can I get the functional address back to 226 like it's supposed to be? The site-to-site was easy enough to fix, but the remote users are a different story. Also, if this is going to potentially happen after every reboot that's a problem I need to get sorted out.

Thanks for any input.

That's a known bug that we are working on. Still unable to replicate it locally though which makes it difficult.

Simply re-saving the WAN interface with the current settings will bring back the correct primary IP.

@stephenw10 Thank you very much for the reply. I searched, but couldn't phrase my question properly to find that.
