Description

On the interfaces > assignments page, interfaces are displayed in the order I added them to my pfSense unit, instead of a logical alphabetical order.

If there was an option to have them in alphabetical or custom order, it would make it easier to find the interface I am looking for.

This also applies to the VLAN page, where the vlans are listed in the order they were added. There is a way to sort that page, however, The default should list them in ascending order from lowest tag to greatest. Thank you

The interface order is significant and must be maintained. Allowing this safely would require significant changes to things like HA support, otherwise it will only lead to more problems and support headaches.

I meant to add, if you just want the cosmetic sorting there is an option for that under System > General and it can be a per-user option under System > User Manager when editing a user and enabling per-user GUI options. It's just not something we will change natively.
