Thanks

Re: Change default nic

By default do you mean that your default route (netstat -rn) is set to lan0?
There are a couple of ways to change this:
1. Goto SAM, unconfigure lan0 and then configure lan1 with your host IP address etc.

or
2. you can edit your /etc/rc.config.d/netconf to set up entries for lan1 with your IP address and default gateway/route information.

Be aware that you will need to reboot the server after these changes, and its probably best to do it from the console or MP/webconsole access.

Good luck.

nothing wrong with me that a few lines of code cannot fix!
