Description

If you only have one physical interface, plus a 3G modem for WAN, the current console assignment is far from ideal. You'd have to assign your LAN as WAN, connect to the GUI, skip the wizard, create a PPP interface, and then reassign 3G to WAN, and the physical port to LAN.

If we could at least offer a way to create a "stub" of a PPP interface (an entry with no config, dummy interface with an IP of none) that would allow assignment on the console.

It could be prompted after VLANs, and before the actual assignment prompt.
