Interface & IP Management

The Sites → Details → Networks tab introduces a redesigned and centralized interface management system for Cloud Gateways. This update replaces fragmented configurations from previous versions with a unified, policy-driven model that simplifies control, improves visibility, and reduces the risk of misconfiguration.

Default Interfaces

Each Cloud Gateway includes three core interfaces by default:

  • port0 → Primary physical WAN uplink
  • swg0 → Stealth WireGuard tunnel
  • tun0 → OpenVPN tunnel
  • wg0 → WireGuard tunnel

Networks Table

The table provides a detailed overview of each interface:

ColumnDescription
NameSystem-assigned interface name
TypeInterface type
RoleInterface function, such as WAN or LAN
IP / NetworkAssigned IP address and subnet
StatusCurrent operational status
Bound InterfacesPhysical link associated with tunnels
Addressing ModeStatic or DHCP
DescriptionShort explanation of the interface’s purpose

The ••• menu on each row allows:

  • View — For port0 (WAN)
  • Edit — For tunnel interfaces (tun0, swg0, wg0)

port0 – Physical Interface

The WAN interface configuration is read-only and provides full metadata visibility.

DescriptionDefault system label
StatusOperational state
Interface TypePhysical
RoleWAN
MTUMaximum packet size
Address AssignmentDHCP
MAC AddressSystem-assigned hardware address
Access RestrictionToggle ping/web access

The DHCP tab is disabled for WAN interfaces, as they don’t provide DHCP services.


Tunnel Interfaces — tun0, swg0, wg0

Tunnel interfaces connect remote users or networks securely. Version 1.30.0 replaces per-device IP assignments with centralized management.

1. Configuration

FieldDescription
DescriptionA short information of the interface

2. DHCP

This tab allows you to manage tunnel-level DNS and Static IP Reservations.
