To create a redundant interface
1 Go to System > Network > Interface.
2 Select Create New.
3 In the Name field, enter a name for the redundant interface.
The interface name must not be the same as any other interface, zone or VDOM.
4 From the Type list, select Redundant Interface
5 One at a time, in the Available Interfaces list, select each physical interface that
you want to include in the redundant interface and then select the right arrow
button to move it to the Selected Interfaces list. The interfaces you add will be
used in the order they appear in the Selected Interfaces list. For example if the
first interface in the list fails, the second interface is used.

for it. For information about dynamic addressing, see:
• “Configuring DHCP on an interface” on page 78
• “Configuring an interface for PPPoE or PPPoA” on page 80
7 Configure other interface options as required.
8 Select OK.
