dynamic connection besides DHCP (PPTP or PPPoE) on port p2, delete the
default interface. DHCP
Port p3 – Initially, port p3 is bridged to port p1. Both interfaces are also
configured as management ports in the LAN. To use port p3 for another
connection, delete the P1-P3 bridge. However you might lose connectivity to
the network from your administrative PC.
After removing the default configurations for ports p2 and p3, you can reconfigure them
as WAN interfaces. For any other ports, just begin configuring the WAN interface. You
can configure the WAN interface with either static or dynamic IP address assignment.
Be sure to add the gateway to create the default route over the WAN interface, either
when you add or edit a static network interface, or on the page. NETWORK > Routing

Remove the Default Configurations for Port p2 and Port p3
If you want to use port p2 or p3, first remove their default configurations.
If you want to use port p2:
Go to the page. NETWORK > IP Configuration
Delete the default DHCP interface from the section. Dynamic Interface Configuration
If you want to use port p3:
Go the page and delete the P1-P3 bridge. NETWORK > Bridging
Go the the page. Delete the P1-P3-BRIDGE firewall rule.FIREWALL > Firewall Rules
Configure a WAN Interface
To configure a WAN interface:
Go to the page.NETWORK > IP Configuration
If your WAN interface has a static IP address:
In the section, click .Static Interface Configuration Add Static Network Interface
Configure the static interface settings, including the gateway address.
Click .Add
If you have a dynamic connection such as PPTP or PPPoE:
In the section, click .Dynamic Interface Configuration Add Dynamic Network Interface
Configure the dynamic interface settings.
Click .Add
At the top of the page, click on the warning message to execute the new network configuration.
Example - Configuring a Static WAN Connection
This article provides example settings to configure an interface for an ISP that statically assigns an IP address for a WAN uplink. For instructions
on how to configure a static network interface, see .How to Add a Static Network Interface
The static WAN interface and ISP gateway for this example are shown in the following figure:
