Network Interface in builtin Multimedia Server

I am using a **TerraMaster F2-423** NAS with both **2.5 GbE interfaces connected to different networks**, currently running **TOS 7.0.427**.

When I open the **Multimedia Server** settings, I notice that multiple network interfaces are listed with the same name (screenshot attached). However, only **two of these interfaces are actually valid**, corresponding to the two physical connections.

Since the interface names appear identical, it is difficult to distinguish which entry corresponds to which network interface. As a result, I currently have to configure them one by one and test which interface the server is reachable through.

This issue appeared after I **upgraded the system from TOS 6.0 to TOS 7.0**.

Could you please advise if there is a way to clearly identify the correct interfaces or resolve the duplicate interface listing?

I don't see the duplicate lan options. (admittedly not running 0.427 on my -424 where MMserver is installed). I see a listing for LAN1, LAN2 and BOND1 - where I have the 2 lan interfaces bonded to a single network. This I accept as reasonable.
Do you by any chance have IPv6 enabled? Maybe causing listing an interface for each protocol - but that would only, logically, explain 4.
{Have you reported this as a bug by email (as per Beta protocol) to see what the development team have to say?}

Hi,

Thank you for your response.

I understand that when IPv6 is enabled, each IP interface creates a separate LAN. Since IPv6 is enabled in my setup, the presence of four LANs is expected, as you explained. However, the appearance of a fifth LAN remains unclear. Additionally, even if one LAN corresponds to IPv6 and another to IPv4, the current naming convention is somewhat confusing.

I will proceed with raising this as a bug so that it can be investigated further.

Thank you.
