Assign a static IP address
The command to assign a static IP address to an interface follows the following format:
intf [interface name] set ip [IP address]/[mask]
For example, to assign the IP address 192.168.1.1 with a /24 mask to the lan0 interface the following command would be used:
intf lan0 set ip 192.168.1.1/24
Enable DHCP
The command to enable DHCP on an interface follows the following format:
intf [interface name] enable dhcp
For example, to enable DHCP on the wan0 interface the following command would be used:
intf wan0 enable dhcp
Enable an interface
The command to enable or bring up an interface follows the following format:
intf [interface name] up
For example, to bring up the wan0 interface the following command would be used:
intf wan0 up
Disable an interface
The command to disable or bring down an interface follows the following format:
intf [interface name] down
For example, to bring down the wan0 interface the following command would be used:
