Configure the WAN Ethernet port as a LAN
This procedure reconfigures the WAN port to serve as port for a LAN, which will result in the device
having two separate LANs: the default LAN LAN, and the LAN created in this procedure. To utilize both
LANs, you will need to have a device connected to the WAN port, and a separate device connected to
the ETH2 port to the default LAN, and these devices will be on separate LANs.
If instead, you want the WAN port to be bridged with the ETH2 portincluded in the default LAN, see
Create a bridge that includes the WAN port, or if you want to create a new bridge that includes the
WAN port an other devices, see Create a bridge that includes the WAN port.
