Description
Hello. I think that the WAN interfaces on the netgate 6100 box are now called incorrectly.
Like now:
WAN1 = ix3, WAN2 = ix2, WAN3 = ix1, WAN4 = ix0.
It should be:
WAN1 = ix0, WAN2 = ix1, WAN3 = ix2, WAN4 = ix3.
The support advised me to write to redmine. I apologize if I wrote it in the wrong place or incorrectly.

Or is this the norm for this box?

- Status changed from New to Not a Bug
The expected order is the order shown on https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-6100/io-ports.html - The labels we have given the ports do not need to match the order of the OS interfaces, they frequently differ since the order probed by the OS depends on the hardware layout which isn't always fully under our control.
So we label the ports the way users expect them to be and setup default assignments to match what we want, no matter what is happening at the OS level.
