Description | If you configure a USB NIC interface as Static, LAN then move the NIC to a different port, if you then go to the Webconfig WPAD settings screen you get a Ooooops: IP Address Invalid and cannot access the screen. I would have thought it should not fail at this point but perhaps just skip over the interface. Also, with a static IP it could possibly be considered as valid.
If you then delete the NIC definition in Network > Settings > IP Settings, you can get into the WPAD screen, but it still shows up the DHCP server for the now deleted interface in the WPAD Settings. Arguably this is a Network bug as deleting the interface should also delete the DHCP server, but on the other hand, if the WPAD is validating the NICs, I don't think it should be displaying info for invalid NICs either.
Also if you have an interface of Type=DHCP, why does the WPAD app try to get you to configure it? I think it is displaying incorrectly as all NIC names are called DHCP,interface_name(base_address_of_subnet) whether they are static or Dynamic. |
