Point taken about all the possible things that can go wrong and various permutations from pfSense's perspective. As a starting point for a generalized solution, isn't it possible to read the hardware MAC address from an ethernet device? If so, couldn't the hardware MAC be used to uniquely identify interfaces even if the disappearance of one or more interfaces causes interfaces to be renumbered? _______________________________________________ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
