Accessing xDSL Web GUI as bridge on WAN

Gradius

I need to know if those steps are still necessary on v2.0.1 or a new (better) method is out?

SSH to pfSense and input the following:

pkg_add -r redir
ifconfig fxp0 192.168.0.2/24
redir --lport 8989 --cport 80 --caddr 192.168.0.1 &

In this example 'fxp0' is the real WAN interface (on which pfSense runs PPPoE).
In the example it gets an IP address (192.168.0.2/24) from the modem's subnet (192.168.0.1/24) assigned and redir puts a Proxy on port 8989 of the pfSense and forwards it to the modem on port 80.
You can access the modem by connecting to any of the pfSense's addresses (e.g. LAN) on port 8989 and get redirected to the modem's WEBGUI.

If same method, can someone please clarify the instructions above? It was translated (from german I guess) and isn't 100% clear.
