Hi, Apparently, my patch doesn't completely solve all above issues (and I was wrong about possible closing of ticket #6796, sorry). It only protects LAN port IP address from being disconfigured upon same interface configured PPPoE WAN port startup/shutdown. It does not solve a more general problem of setting up more than one port on the same interface, apparently not working for most configurations. For me, it works in case of bridged LAN followed by PPPoE WAN over br-lan configurations, in that order. However, WAN stil doesn't start up automatically for me and must be ifuped manually. I'm still investigating possibilities for correct handling of shared interface ports arbitrary configuration and automatic startup. I'm going to provide separate patch(es) addressing these issues if/when ready. OTOH, accessing a DSL modem configuration interface over a port configured for PPPoE, as discussed otherwise, seems possible with an additional WAN interface alias configured. However, this method wouldn't allow me for setting up DHCP server on this interface. My patch, with all its limitations, provides me with such a possibility, allowing the same port for common LAN utilization as well.
