Re: IPFire 3.x network configuration error

Hello Thomas,

thanks for your post on this list. Your described problem is a result of 
a miss-configured network.

It is only possible to create a lan0 or a upl0 network zone.

A lanX network zone is a local Ethernet, which doesn't have an a default 
route.

An uplX zone describes a network zone which has access to the next 
"bigger" network - In most cases this will be the Internet.

Best regards,

Stefan
